I have found the long term solution to this problem:

    http://sf.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1197318&group_id=5470&atid=305470

The solution was actually much easier than I thought -- it just makes
Cygwin use the Mac OS X case checking function (i.e, case_ok()) instead
of a modified Window's version.

The next Cygwin Python package will have the above mentioned patch
applied.

Thanks for helping to uncover this bug.
