If we get TRUECASE of the pattern and the path, they must match if same
or mismatch if different. Case insensitive test is not sufficient since
that's a whopping 96 codepage points out of 64k in unicode.
The problem is that the APR code relies on the MSVC run-time being
consistent: as we have demonstrated, it's not. It can and does report
c:\ in several circumstances. Note that all APR was doing was
toupper() which doesn't handle Unicode either.
Again, these are the testnames tests that were failing. Win32 reports
c:\ and APR expects it to be C:\. So, the tests fail. As Paul said,
either the tests need to be rewritten to support case-insensitivity or
APR needs to be fixed to respect what the runtimes provide to us. At
this point, I think APR needs to be fixed. -- justin
