my changelog entry may be confusing: the name read from lynx.cfg is
compare to the table in case-independent match with strcasecomp. Then,
the table name _was_ used as the argument to getenv. I changed the
argument to an uppercased string (in this instance, the working string
from lynx.cfg, since the table itself is const/readonly).
So before/after, the upper/lower case of strings in lynx.cfg is ignored.
