 I requested this change to have an order of how words should be spelled.
 Both ways are used throughout the doc/ tree, it would look better if
 there were only one way of writing it from now on.  Some replacements has
 been made lately for the capitalization way.  Plus, oh my, there's a
 typo on my patch.  I'll attach a corrected patch just in case it is 
 decided to be committed.
