Bug description: glob is case sensitive on windows where filenames are case
insensitive.
Description:
------------
I'm not sure if this is just a documentation issue or another bug for
windows.
Filenames on Windows are accessible case insensitive.
If you have a file ACamelCasedFile.php, then you cannot have a file
aCamelCasedFile.PHP as these are considered to be the same name.
So, my expectation of the glob() function on Windows would be to support
this aspect of the OS.
So, glob('*camel*') should return the file. Obviously it does not.
Whilst I can use bracing to supply variants, getting all the variants is a
lot of effort - camel, Camel, cAmel, CAmel, caMel, CaMel, etc.
Remember that Windows doesn't care, so neither should glob(), at least on
windows.
But, having to not break BC, would introducting a new flag GLOB_CASELESS
be possible?
