Actually when implemented a str[n]equal_icase that actually should work.
I break the test suite when trying to replace
strncmp_icase(pathname, base, baselen)) on line 711 in dir.c and I don't
get any significant improvements.

I like work in this area though, slow commit's are my worst git problem.
I often have to wait 10s. for a commit to be calculated.

Tried to replace strncmp_icase on line 711 in dir.c but then failed to
run the testsuite. Did not got any relevant speed improvements of this.
