By default HFS+ filesystems on OSX are case insensitive so you see
problems like you described with the linux kernel source which has
different files named xt_TCPMSS.c and xt_tcpmss.c.
HFS+ partitions can be case sensitive, but are not by default. Unlike
some earlier versions, OSX 10.6 can boot from a case sensitive HFS+
filesystem. Even if you do that, OSX (or maybe HFS+) still has issues
with unicode normalization described in the archive, but I haven't had
a problem with the normalization in practice.
Thanks,
Tarmigan
