[Pythonmac-SIG] wxPython build issue

One more observation on my last posting:

The #ifndef POSIX_C_SOURCE condition on strcasecmp() in <string.h>  
seems to have been introduced between Panther and Tiger.

Looking in the 10.3.9 SDK, strcasecmp() is only conditional on  
#ifndef _ANSI_SOURCE.

So presumably the build works on Panther, but the new <string.h>  
seems to me to be correct, as in standards compliant.  I have seen  
similar on Tru64 and Solaris,  and seen similar problems arise.
