For those of us who haven't gotten the compiler working (or who don't
have the space to rebuild the .dll), it would be very nice if someone could
ftp a patched cygwin.dll to a publicly accessible site.

TIA,

Bash, being written for UNIX, is case-sensitive.  So, if you have a file
named "COPYING", and you press "cop" and <tab> for completions, it
won't work.
Since win32 has case-insensitive file names, that doesn't make sense.

These three patches makes file-name completion *and* globbing
case-insensitive, when _WIN32 is defined.
