Win 95:

mkdir .cvs
touch !.cvs
touch .cvsignore
find . -name '*cvs*'
./!.cvs
find | grep cvs
./.cvs
./!.cvs
./.cvsignore

So, I see the same behavior on W95 as on Win2K.

Now, if I create a file/dir "CVS"
find shows the file as all lower case on find without a name argument, ie
./cvs
(-name '*CVS*' fails as expected).

If there is a problem, can someone make a .bat file which recreates
the problem when run in an empty directory and shows different behavior 
on different systems?  (Setting any environment variables necessary?)
