Might be something I can fix (I already have cygwin-local patches to
allow 'mv A.txt a.txt', so it is probably just incomplete if directories
aren't working).

I know the .exe magic I added in coreutils tries to be case insensitive,
but I don't know if cygwin1.dll does the same; in the case of exec'ing a
program, that's the cygwin1.dll choosing whether to try all possible cases.
