Can you be more specific about which tools are causing the problem?

It works for me, but then again my system is not a latest one: GNU bash, version 2.05b.0(1)-release automake (GNU automake) 1.7.8 autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.57 GNU Make version 3.79.1 xgettext (GNU gettext-tools) 0.12.1 GNU find version 4.1.7 tar (GNU tar) 1.13.25 gzip 1.3.3 bzip2, a block-sorting file compressor. Version 1.0.2, 30-Dec-2001. Hmmm, there's that capital/lowercase name issue all over the place again. :-)
