I think we better leave this be for now. nlm/* builds gdbserve.exe,
a gdbserver-like remote protocol debug agent for NetWare systems.
The NetWare C library NLM has str{n,}icmp() but not str{n,}casecmp().
While we could probably link with libiberty, I wouldn't go down that
road unless it's considered a high priority and there's some means for
testing the results. When I last worked with nlm/*, it was rather
fragile. I don't think the years of neglect since then have done it
any favors.
