Subject: Why does ls command sometimes case sensitively misbehave?

Why is ls doing this?  Other commands, like vi, also show
this behavior:

    $ touch foo

    $ ls
    foo

    $ ls foo
    foo

    $ ls FoO
    FoO

    $ ls fo*
    foo

    $ ls Fo*
    ls: Fo*: No such file or directory

$ bash --version
GNU bash, version 2.05b.0(2)-release (i686-pc-cygwin)
Copyright (C) 2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Cygwin DLL version 1.3.12-2

I run Cygwin on Windows XP Professional.

Thanks,
Geoffrey
