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.
