Unfortunately, at least Windows filesystem is also incapable of storing
filenames with only case-differences. This problem may not be encountered
in common uses, but on the few occasions that it does bite, it bites hard.
Maybe I don't fully understand the problem, but this limitation suggests
to me that on such platforms the file-case should just simply be ignored.
If the case doesn't match, you have worse problems than simply locating
the right file.
