Actually it is due to:
http://freegis.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/grass6/general/manage/lib/do_rename.c.diff?r1=1.6&r2=1.7

where strcmp was replaced with G_strcasecmp, thus making the compare 
case independent. So, the line should not be removed, but it should 
either be reverted to strcmp, or we need G_strcmp, which doesn't exist 
at this stage AFAICT.
