I don't know.  I hadn't heard of doing this sort of renaming.  I
recommend against it; if leaving the files as-is shows bugs in jc1,
then let's fix those bugs.

In the past there was the famous case-sensitivity bug.  I thought
Bryce had fixed it, but I couldn't find mention of a fix in the
mailing list archives or in the ChangeLog.
