Sorry, I just cannot sympathize with your desire to write non-localizable
software. There are a lot of modern string manipulation libraries available,
from CFString to ICU.

Besides, from the list above, only strupr() and strlwr() do not seem to
have direct equivalents in libc - is it worth another flame war? :)
