Description
My company still uses a lot of legacy code that has filenames like FILE1.C and FILE1.H. This means that the mimeview api does not recognize them as c files. Can you include the following patch in the trunk so the mimeview api becomes case insensitive?

Thanks.

Actually, as mrowe informed me, the uppercase ".C" and ".H" are actually considered to be C++ extensions, not C (see http://www.saugus.net/Computer/Extensions/).
In [1684] I added these extensions to the mime-map as C++ mappings, but the parsing for C++ should also work on C code, so your files should be highlighted properly.
