With S10 6/2006 the mixed upper/lowercase characters of the
short filename were preserved. Does anyone else get uppercase
characters only? A new bug?
I'd like to clarify on that. They weren't preserved - PCFS instead did
always create a long filename if case were mixed, i.e. even if the
filename would've fit into 8.3 short format. Excerpt from the on-disk

It doesn't create a LFN entry for a short name anymore. Which is Windows
behaviour, but I don't want to stubbornly refuse to revert it back to what
it did previously. I'd much prefer to understand why my change causes
this, though ...
