Brice,
the goal of the test is to check whether a function declaration is
already present
in one of the header.
in order to achieve this, the test will redeclare the function with an
absurd prototype :
strncasecmp(int,long,int,long,int,long,int,long,int,long);
/* by the way, there is no prototyp
Gilles,
The strange configure check comes from this commit

Are you sure your patch won't break something else?
I'll ask Pavan what he thinks about your patch.
I agree that it's crazy we don't find strncasecmp on som

and ctype.h is already #include'd in this file
tolower() is also invoked in :
opal/mca/hwloc/hwloc191/hwloc/include/private/misc.h
*only* if HWLOC_HAVE_DECL_STRNCASECMP is not #define'd :

I'll have to let Brice comment on the config change. All I can say is that
"tolower" on my CentOS box is defined in , and that has to be included
in the misc.h header.

The very similar issue occurs with clang 3.2 (gcc and clang 3.4 are ok

imho, the root cause is in the hwloc configure.
in this case, configure fails to detect strncasecmp is part of the C
