I cannot be the only person who has a need to run tests conditionally
based on whether the file system is case-sensitive or not, so I feel
like I am re-inventing the wheel for issue 5442 to handle OS X with a
case-sensitive filesystem. Is there a boolean somewhere that I can
simply check or get to know whether the filesystem is case-sensitive?
Since one may have more than one filesystem side-by-side, this can't be just be
a system-wide boolean somewhere. One would have to query the target directory
for this information. I am not aware of the existence of code that does such a
query, though.
