I won't argue this point any more, since it's clear that sufficient people
are sufficiently opposed to a fixed mapping.  I will just note that library
authors would do well to bear case-insensitivity in mind while choosing
names for their files.  We could even go so far as to require that no files
in a given library should be case-insensitive-equal.  Yes, it would be a
mild restriction on some OS's, but it would help to improve portability.
