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!
