This should *never* be a problem.  Neither DOS nor Windows really care
about the case of filenames.  DJGPP has a runtime library setting that
changes this, but I strongly disbelieve any distributed DJGPP binary has
that set.

What I would check:

1) Are you fully sure that the 'make' you're executing is the one from
   DJGPP, and not, say, a Cygwin or MinGW32 version?

2) Does your environment have a FNCASE variable set?  If so, turn that off.
