Using BackupPC 4.4.0 and connecting to a Windows 10 client running rsyncd.

I inadvertantly set the share name on the Windows box to "c" (lower case) but the share name in BackupPC to "C" (upper case). Yet the backup is proceeding with the uppercase character. I can see files starting to populate under /var/lib/BackupPC, starting with fC. If I manually query the server from the command line for the share ("rsync winbox::C") I get this:

@ERROR: Unknown module 'C'
rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at main.c(1656) [Receiver=3.1.2]

I briefly inspected the BackupPC code and don't see where the case insensitivity is happening. Could it be happening in rsync-bpc? Is it trying both cases? (That should fail with a mixed case share name, unless it tries all combinations of cases of every letter in the name.)
