Unfortunately, all completions are shown in upper-case with it
for some cases (since COMP_KEYWORD_CASE is upper as the default
on my environment). This prevents names, that are not SQL
keywords, from getting further completion.

pg_strdup_keyword_case follows COMP_KEYWORD_CASE pset variable
which instructs how *SQL keywords* should be handled. It is not
for this usage. And as mentioned before, SQL keywords and
identifiers cannot be treated in the same way, so the place is
not suitable to do this.
By the way, memory blocks that readline sees are freed by it but
blocks allocated by the additional pstrdup seems abandoned
without being freed. Actually, the address of newly allocated
blocks seems increasing time by time slowly *even without this
patch*..
Of course, no one seems to be able to rush into out of memory by
this leak, though..
Anyway, using malloc is one reason of additional complexity and
it is the main cause that I avoided dynamic memory allocation.
Thoughts?
