It's true that I don't intend to do any Linux development on a Windows

the netfilter code would still get mangled, but I can live with that.)

Note that cygwin provides mananged mounts (mount -omanaged) that handles files whose names differ only in case. The names are of course mangled when exploring via native windows tools but not cygwin tools. e.g.,

t>touch file1 File1
t>ls
File1  file1
t>cmd /c dir /b
%46ile1
file1
