If you've been following along on fltk.general, you'll know we've been in discussion over some unpleasantness regarding Turkic locales and strcasecmp/toupper/tolower where 'i' and 'I' are different letters.
No I haven't, but if you were into the subject, please patch as necessary.

The typical solution is to make sort of ASCIIfied versions where you force i<->I.
I think that, for our purposes, we can just use the ordinary POSIX locale and save ourselves the trouble.
FWIW, I don't remember the details but it seems to me that long ago we had a thread on the problems of changing the locale set by the user. -- Cheers Jorge.-
