Description:
As proposed by tclguy in clt:

http://groups.google.com/groups?selm=3E55D356.3090901%40ActiveState.com

a patch to [pkg_mkIndex] can make it
more tolerant of common user errors.

note there's a line continuation bug in the patch.

discussion in the Tcl'ers chat concluded there's
some unsafe change in behavior possible with
auto-requiring packages that might satisfy a
-load pattern.  Unlikely to cause trouble, but too
risky for a patch release.

committing just the -nocase addition to make
-load patterns not care about matching case
against [info loaded].
