It has a lot of i18n implications, thus the comment before the old code.
strcoll is also case insensitive if you don't use the C locale. So the only
advantage left for strnatcasecmp is the natural sorting order for numbers
while losing the naturaly sorting order for all non-ascii chars. That
doesn't weigh IMO.
