Re: [Tinycc-devel] Basic patch for passing W9X short DOS paths to TCC.

[Joshua Phillips]

stricmp or strcasecmp would be provided by the C library. Tcc is only a 
compiler - it doesn't include a C library. Therefore, the presence of stricmp 
or strcasecmp will be determined by the C library you're using (GNU libc or 
MSVCRT or other)
