Perhaps we should modify this section of the IDENT spec:

> 2)   For purposes of comparison for all fields except the
>      <user-id> field, uppercase is not distinct from lower
>      case.  I.e.  "Error" and "ERROR" are the same value.

into something saying that the tokens generated by a server must
use uppercase and that a client should be prepared to handle both
upper and lowercase characters?
