SYNOPSIS
#include <your-opts.h>

int streqvcmp(char const* str1, char const* str2);
DESCRIPTION
Using a character mapping, two strings are compared for "equivalence". Each input character is mapped to a comparison character and the
mapped-to characters are compared for the two NUL terminated input strings. This function name is mapped to option_streqvcmp so as to not
conflict with the POSIX name space.
str1 first string
str2 second string
RETURN VALUE
the difference between two differing characters
ERRORS
none checked. Caller responsible for seg faults.
