I guess it's considered undesirable to avoid the problem by
using only lower-case source file names, so...

Do '.mod' files remain valid if you change the capitalization
of their names, e.g. with the extra line below? (Sorry, I don't
know the language.)

mv `echo $*.mod | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]'` $*.mod
or just create an extra dummy file with a mixed-case name,
assuming a case-sensitive file system:
cp --preserve `echo $*.mod | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]'` $*.mod
# 'touch' might work just as well
and write module dependencies in terms of case-preserved
module file names like 'Foo.mod'. But maybe that's worse than
restricting source file names to lowercase?
