A control variable was added in this commit:

	commit db84ba65ab5c0ad0b34d68ab5a687bc5f4ca3ba6
	Author: Peter Eisentraut <peter_e@gmx.net>
	Date:   Tue May 8 21:03:45 2012 +0300
	
	    psql: Add variable to control keyword case in tab completion
	
	    This adds the variable COMP_KEYWORD_CASE, which controls in what case
	    keywords are completed.  This is partially to let users configure the
	    change from commit 69f4f1c3576abc535871c6cfa95539e32a36120f, but it
	    also offers more behaviors than were available before.
