The only difference here is that Sparc uses strncmp to match compatibility
names while PowerPC uses strncasecmp.
Could we put a comment in saying that both should really just use
strcmp(), and that this mechanism should go away once any compatibility
issues are found and addressed?

The PowerPC one will need to drop the 'n' soon, as well, but that should
be a separate patch.
