<para>
This function is similar to <function>strcasecmp</function>, with
the difference that you can specify the (upper limit of the)
number of characters (<parameter>len</parameter>) from each
string to be used in the comparison. If any of the strings is
shorter than <parameter>len</parameter>, then the length of that
string will be used for the comparison.
</para>
<simpara>
Returns &lt; 0 if <parameter>str1</parameter> is less than
<parameter>str2</parameter>; &gt; 0 if <parameter>str1</parameter>
is greater than <parameter>str2</parameter>, and 0 if they are
equal.
</simpara>
