This patch is still in the current CommitFest, so I decided to review
it. I see that DCH_keywords[] includes upper and lower-case entries
for everything except the three cases corrected by this patch, where
it includes upper-case entries but not the corresponding lower-case
entries. It seems to make sense to make these three cases consistent
with everything else.

It took me a while to understand how DCH_keywords[] and DCH_index[]
actually work, and I think it's a pretty confusing design, but what
the patch does seems to be consistent with that, so it appears correct
to me.

Therefore, I have committed it.
