1. wildcard.e

The new routines to case insensitive compare filenames with accented chars work
fine, with an unexpected side effect though.
Since the couple lines that was using upper() are no longer in scanner.e,
wildcard.e is optimised away from compilation, so it seems.
To avoid errors first, I plugged a routine_id("upper") somewhere in order to
keep going (and got a valid and working exw.exe). But obviously that's a
kludge... is it safe to delete _all_ references to wildcard.c/.o/.obj in the
doezn batch files, as building the interpreter no longer seems to require this
include file?
Just cautious.

It would be much better to remove all references 
to wildcard.* from the batch files, than to create 
an unnecessary reference to upper().

I'll do so, I was just a little surprised and wished to check the drastic change
was the thing to do. I'll commit that tonight (9am here now).
