[Byte]String::ToUpperAscii, see tools/source/string/strimp.cxx, modifies
the string it operates on and returns a reference to *this, i.e. 

aSym = "hello";
aSym.ToUpperAscii();;
//aSym contains "HELLO" now

I mean, it doesn't return an uppercased copy, but returns itself, which
has been uppercased.
