Also the "CVS" and "cvs" directories are another example of this
weirdness.

No, there are lots of problems with case insensitivity.  Pkgsrc also
requires case sensitivity to work without problems.

In short you need a defacto-unix-standard case sensitive file system
to do unixy things.  I'm amazed that Apple even considered making
such a file system for a Unix-based box. Hopefully HFS++ will fix this.
I'd gripe more about Apple, but this isn't the place to do it.
