in gdb 3.5 (sparc), I defined a macro 'IN' to show the in registers.

when I tried to use it via 'IN', I was given a blurb about 'INfo'.

when i renamed the macro 'in' rather than 'IN', I was able to use it
no problemo.

so, does gdb downcase all command names, and forget to downcase define
targets?
