Two questions:
1. How does this resolve the bugs related to the case-insensitivity
of the filesystem? AFAIK, HFS is a case-insensitive filesystem,
right?
2. Could this partly explain why native builds on Windows are so
slow (it doesn't have scandir( ) and alphasort( ), even in
libmingwex/libiberty)?

awe of him! What an amazingly brilliant and profilic guy!
