;Purpose:
;       defines __ascii_memicmp() - compare two blocks of memory for lexical
;       order. Case is ignored in the comparison.

;int __ascii_memicmp(first, last, count) - compare two blocks of memory, ignore case
;
;Purpose:
;       Compares count bytes of the two blocks of memory stored at first
;       and last.  The characters are converted to lowercase before
;       comparing (not permanently), so case is ignored in the search.
;
;       Algorithm:
;       int
;       _memicmp (first, last, count)
;               char *first, *last;
;               unsigned count;
;               {
;               if (!count)
;                       return(0);
;               while (--count && tolower(*first) == tolower(*last))
;                       {
;                       first++;
;                       last++;
;                       }
;               return(tolower(*first) - tolower(*last));
;               }
;
;Entry:
;       char *first, *last - memory buffers to compare
;       unsigned count - maximum length to compare
;
;Exit:
;       returns <0 if first < last
;       returns 0 if first == last
;       returns >0 if first > last
