I'm sure they are not.
But I think it is wrong for w32 to turn on completion-ignore-case for all
completions rather than only for file-name completion.

If we want completion-ignore-case to be on by default we should do that on
all platforms.

But maybe completion-ignore-case is misued at some places to test whether
the system's filenames are cas-sensitive or not.  We should fix those.
