Well yes -- that's why I wasn't suggesting that every single stupid vendor 
interop be implemented (since some I could envision would hopelessly tangle 
up chan_sip), but stupid little things like ignoring 1xx responses that would 
otherwise cause a call to fail and so on.

Yes a strcasecmp is not something that is always required, but as a stupid 
vendor option the only people who'd be impacted would be those with stupid 
vendors to interop with.

-A.
