    Is this on a Windows machine, or on a Mac (or an otherwise
    case-insensitive file system)?  Was the patch created under
    Linux?

Oh, yeah, system details. All the patches were created under FreeBSD.
I'm currently running a darcs built (and like pulled from darcs-stable)
on Dec 15th, although the patches were likely generated by prior
versions -- the first patch is dated 20060102173652, the offending patch
is probably from September.

Thanks,
Bill
