--- Comment #45 from Tom B <tom at r.je> ---
I'm trying to debug a problem I think might be caused by this issue. Is it
quickly testable by recursively lowercasing every file in the prefix? 

Can someone document how this works?

If the windows applications requests: C:\Foo\Bar.BAZ

Does it do a case sensitive check first stat(prefix/drive_c/Foo/Bar.BAZ) then
fallback to scanning the directory? Or does run
stat(prefix/drive_c/foo/bar.baz)

If the latter, presumably a quick fix is a script to recursively lowercase all
file names inside the prefix. 

If the former, is there any way to log the exact file names being referenced by
the Windows application? I'm thinking it might be useful to rename files to the
format the windows application is expecting them to be in.
