RE: [leafnode-list] Two Groups With Same Name

["Jeff Grossman" <jeff@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

No, the problem is there are two groups in my groupinfo file with the same
name when this happens.  One of the groups has an uppercase name while the
other does not.  Agent quits out immediately whenever I try and do anything
when this happens.  I have to go into my groupinfo file and remove the ones
with the capital letters.

So, the below patch will not fix my problem which is I cannot use Leafnode
when there are two groups with the same name, except for capitalization
issues.
