I tried to answer this earlier, but SPA-NIMBUS is not a real host, and
our local mailer cleverly puts such messages into the dumpster. What is
"SPA" anyway?
Moon is right: the package name description means what it says about
cases, and not what you imagine it is trying to say. I'll put in some
phrase about "unlike the way case is handled in symbols" to emphasize
this.
