If you are using a lredir drive, the relevant code is in dosext/mfs/mfs.c,
in dos_fs_redirect().  It looks like the file is created verbatim to the DOS
create command; if the DOS programmer happened to use all uppercase or
some mixed case in his program, the file is actually created with that
case on the unix side, even though on the dos side it is all treated as
universal case.

I agree that having mixed case filenames under unix tends to be an
annoyance.  Perhaps this should be made into a configurable option.
