Description:
------------
http header keys are defined case insensetive in rfc2616, therefore get_headers should lower or uppercase all keys.
for BC an additional parameter may be useful:

get_headers($url, $format, $toLower = false);

Although the headers are interpreted without reference to case, get_headers doesn't do any interpreting. It is only retrieving data, and mangling that data is not a good thing to do.

If you want the data to be all lower case, you can easily do that yourself.
