Mh. I found a very old version that i had set aside with the name
bibtex.el.orig, which does not contain that variable, so it may well be
that I had introduced that variable myself as a local change with the
aim of pushing it in the Emacs tree but then I forgot to do that. It
was a long time ago, so I may well have forgotten.
Anyway, here is my patch, which I think does not make any harm. It
changes the behaviour slightly in what I consider it being a more
consistent way. When unifying is requested, in the default case, which
is 'identity, if an unknown field is found it is not unified (rather
than being downcased as it is now): only known fields are unified to the
known case.
Note that the last hunk is only a change of 'if' with 'when', it is big
because of reindentation and just a matter of aesthetics (or clarity).
