Yes, it's normal, you could call that the price of speed, everything has to be
in lower case for everything to work after this. All the files created by wine
will be in lower case, but if you uncompress a bg2 mod in linux for example,
you'd better run tolower.pl again after that.
If you forget it's not that important anyway, you'll simply eventually get an
error when the mod tries to install (if it has some files with mixed
lower/upper case letters) and then it will revert to its previous status, so
you can run tolower after that and try again.

The problem is that when the full path of the file arrives at the functions I
worked on, it already contains the wine prefix, so it's hard to know which is
which.

Ok, I guess it's enough info to send the patch, they'll do what they want with
it, thanks for testing !
