There is already a PR on this.
There is no `paint.java'. I'm guessing that the problem is that the
compiler doesn't account for case insensitivity at all. If you look
through the files in gcc/java/ you'll see plenty of calls to strcmp
which ought to be strcasecmp on Windows.
Fixing this wouldn't be hard, but I won't be doing it, at least not in
the forseeable future.
