You need to use gnulib module 'strcasestr'.

Btw, what is the encoding of the strings on which rec-record.c uses
strcasestr() and strstr()? If it can be a multi-byte encoding other than
UTF-8 (such as BIG5 or GB18030), the functions strstr() and strcasestr()
can produce wrong matches. If you know the encoding is the locale encoding
(depends on $LANG), then you should better use the gnulib modules
'mbsstr' and 'mbscasestr' instead. If, however, you don't know the encoding
at all, then forget about this functionality, and don't use strstr() nor
strcasestr().
