This is hard to believe that automatically lowercasing the path is not a
bug... 

the majority of PHP users are actually on *nix platforms - especially in


production.  Causing the paths to automatically be lowercase drastically
takes 

away from the default functionality.



I apologize if I am being arrogant here - however, when you write
include 

'My/Path/To/A/File.php' it does not lowercase that path so why should 

spl_autoload do anything different with the default behavior?



Offending code to fix this is on line: 303 in trunk of php_spl.c: 303
>---

lc_name = zend_str_tolower_dup(class_name, class_name_len);



Removing the str_tolower would resolve this issue and we would all be
happy.  I 

will post to php-dev as well with a patch.

Exactly. You can implement your custom autoload to behaves as you want.
The lowercased stuff is good for some people, but is not the desired for
others.

Are you saying that I'll have to rename all my php file names to be
lowercase on 

Linux to use spl_autoload?

Hi, I forgot to say... the path that will be tried to be found it is
lowercased. 

i.e. my/framework/test.php



See bug #52406



Thanks.

I've already checked that using phpinfo(). It is PHP 5.3.3.

Hi, make sure you are using the right version... (phpversion())
