I haven't read the full context here, so I could be a bit off-base,
but, surely using strncasecmp (or strncasecomp, whatever that is) is a
bit dodgy here?  You don't want "utf-8-is-stupid" to be taken as
"utf-8", surely?  (Not that I've ever seen the former in the wild, and
I haven't actually read the spec myself, but I doubt it considers all
strings beginning with UTF-8 to be equivalent to UTF-8.)

In the case of UTF-8, it's less likely to be a problem in practice, but
there are other cases where it's a bigger issue; for example,
ISO-8859-1 and ISO-8859-14 are very different.
