The rule of the game can be updated to make whoever looks at
.ignore_case currently instead look at .regflags & REG_ICASE; that
way, we could remove .ignore_case and stop worrying about one is
subset of the other.

It is just it felt funny to be mucking with .regflags when the user
explicitly said -F, and that is why they are separate.
