[Erw-devel] PEAR HTTP.php

[erw-devel]

In case anyone's doing multilingual apps, you may want to know that 
various browsers handle their language settings differently.  This 
causes problems with using HTTP.php's negotiateLanguage() function.  
Specifically, some browsers handle US English thus:
en-us, en-US, EN-US
And not all of these will work -- the function as coded (at least with 
my "stock" RH9 system's RPM) does a case _sensitive_ comparison (bad 
idea).  To handle it "properly" (per RFC), you need a case insensitive 
comparison, as provided by the patch below.  It's been reported to 
PEAR, but never fixed, as far as I know.

diff HTTP.php.orig HTTP.php

<                    $l = $accepted[$i];
---
>                    $l = strtolower($accepted[$i]);
