I was asking for a case ignore option for the starting path.

I'm aware of -iname to look for names, ignoring case, but how do you put in
the start directory?

find <startdir> args

what is needed is a find DIR -istart which would find DIR whether it is named
'dir', 'DIR' or whatever.  like -maxdepth, -istart would have to be one of the
first args.

In a similar way bash can match a path regardless of case if it is part of a
regex and you hve the ignore case turned on.
