Actually, doesn't DOS write and present file-names as uppercase?
Wouldn't that make the Linux module's file-name-mapping `incorrect',
and Cygwin's `correct'?

Could you give some more detail on why just using lowercase
file-names in the makefile is problematic? Linux sees them as lowercase, and
Cygwin is case-insensitive, so I'd think that everything would be alright.

Are you having problems with detecting things through file-names?
