Do you have any plan to deal with this? I currently have this
monkeypatch to build on Solaris:

    diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile
    index 62d526a..079fae5 100644
    --- a/Makefile
    +++ b/Makefile
    @@ -863,2 +863,4 @@ endif
     ifeq ($(uname_S),SunOS)
    +       COMPAT_OBJS = compat/fnmatch/fnmatch.o
    +       COMPAT_CFLAGS = -Icompat -Icompat/fnmatch
            NEEDS_SOCKET = YesPlease

One way to deal with it would be a new NONGNU_FNMATCH=UnfortunatelyYes
flag, or the fnmatch_icase() suggestion above which we could bundle
and always use. But having next build on systems without GNU
extensions would be preferrable.
