There was a discussion here on the Mac's case-sensitive-but-not-quite file 
system, and I was convinced to leave it the way it is (it breaks something 
in MacPorts or something).  Well, I've just been convinced otherwise...

I am backing up my FreeBSD server to the MacBook (don't ask) and amongst 
the detritus accumulated last century I found this:

See the problem?  Sigh...
