I'm not sure the CASE_PATHS part itself is clearer, though i did like the
additional reference under NO_CASE_GLOB. Assuming nobody wants to argue
for the rest i think i may commit just that part.

Without having looked into it super deeply, 'skip' does seem a little
clearer to me.

I didn't really like that either, but i was trying to match the rest of
the file (many instances of that kind of thing). Not sure if there's any
specific precedent for the 5.8 -> 5.8.1 change.

I wouldn't mind documenting somewhere exactly how these files should be
structured. In the mean time, how do you suggest i revise exactly? Would
you prefer each section to cover a single version (5.7.1 -> 5.8,
5.8 -> 5.8.1, 5.8.1 -> 5.9), or...?

Is there a behaviour change there? I thought it was just a crash fix
