Wouldn't a direct transfer of the lowercase function be something more like:

void strbuf_tolower(struct strbuf *sb)
{
	char *p = sb->buf;
	for (; *p; p++)
		*p = tolower(*p);
}
That seems to me to be a bit more efficient.  According to the  
comments in strbuf.c, "people can always assume buf is non NULL and - 
 >buf is NUL terminated even for a freshly initialized strbuf."
