If they were truly case-insensitive, I might agree.  However, as I've
mentioned but will reiterate, they're not.  They're ASCII case
insensitive, and that's a long cry from real case-insensitivity.  PHP
6 was planning to make case-insensitivity real but obviously that's
dead and buried.

This is ugly, but if I'm playing devil's advocate, it is consistent
with the rest of the core runtime.
