OK, I think you're confusing yourself a lot:
1. There's no reason toupper doesn't work as it should; I think it's part of
the MSVCRT, and that ought to work on basics like this. If I'm not correct,
please post the issue to the mingw-w64 list and discuss with the people who
do know :)
2. Boost is free as in feces. I know it's not a nice way of putting things,
but you are allowed to use Boost everywhere anywhere for everything freely,
without any need to pay. Just provide a copy of the Boost license and
presto. link to license text
<http://www.boost.org/LICENSE_1_0.txt><http://www.boost.org/LICENSE_1_0.txt>
You can build boost by using the freely available bjam and the boost.build
infrastructure. Documentation is on their website.
3. About the globbing, someone on the list (which I put this discussion back
on) will know how to handle globbing.
