Nico, The only way may be to assume that all file systems are case sensitive and then populate a set of exceptions according to operating system. Pretty platform dependent, of course.
Another option would be to make it an optional attribute of the patternset/fileset. This puts control in the user hands and makes any buildfiles that use the attribute somewhat less portable.
