+FUNCTION
+ <<strncasecmp_l>>---case-insensitive character string compare
+
+INDEX
+ strncasecmp_l
+
+ANSI_SYNOPSIS
+ #include <strings.h>
+ int strncasecmp_l(const char *<[a]>, const char * <[b]>,
+ size_t <[length]>, locale_t <[locale]>);
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ <<strncasecmp_l>> compares up to <[length]> characters
+ from the string at <[a]> to the string at <[b]> in a
+ case-insensitive manner.
+
+ if <[locale]> is LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE or not a valid locale object, the
+ behaviour is undefined.
+
+RETURNS
+
+ If <<*<[a]>>> sorts lexicographically after <<*<[b]>>> (after
+ both are converted to lowercase), <<strncasecmp_l>> returns a
+ number greater than zero. If the two strings are equivalent,
+ <<strncasecmp_l>> returns zero. If <<*<[a]>>> sorts
+ lexicographically before <<*<[b]>>>, <<strncasecmp_l>> returns a
+ number less than zero.
+
+PORTABILITY
+<<strncasecmp_l>> is POSIX-1.2008.
+
+<<strncasecmp_l>> requires no supporting OS subroutines. It uses
+tolower_l() from elsewhere in this library.
