Summary: ssluse.c uses strcasecmp

Initial Comment:
Hi,

The Win32 SSL build fails using Makefile.vc6, because
of an unresolved external symbol in lib\ssluse.c.
Digging a bit deeper, it seems as if the function
strequal() has been designed to be platform
independent, and use a case-insensitive comparison.

The version of curl I am looking at is: curl 7.8.1
(win32) libcurl 7.8.1 (OpenSSL 0.9.6b).

I've included a patch inline that replaces the call to
strcasecmp with a call to strequal.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Tim Costello
