strnicmp() is present but disabled. Make it available and define stricmp()
also. There is a only a small performance penalty to having stricmp()
call strnicmp(), so do this instead of a standalone function, to save code
space.

Changes in v2:
- Add stricmp() patch again since it is used in this series

Both POSIX and the Linux kernel call this strcasecmp() rather than  
stricmp()...

Yes, I will fix this. I will also need to tidy up a few prototypes in
other archs.
