Thanks, I got the add-keywords part working, but not the font-lock-
keywords-case-fold-search part:

  ;; specific that keyword matching is now case insensitive
  ;;(set (make-local-variable 'font-lock-keywords-case-fold-search) nil)
  (set font-lock-keywords-case-fold-search nil)

According to the help, font-lock-keywords-case-fold-search will
automatically become buffer-local when set in any fashion, hence the 2nd 
attempt. 

However, none of them turn the case insensitive keyword matching on. 

I did a search, and found it was a known problem[1]. How can I fix it?

Thanks
