Svip is right, of course ... (my morning caffiene had not taken effect yet). Apache should also not have anything to do with the capitalizations of the page names on the page. If all extensions were removed/disabled then either something was left behind, such as a modification in the includes directory, or an extension has modified the database. Do pages created after disabling the extensions have this behavior?
A fresh install of mediawiki would help clear some of this up. If a fresh install does not have this behavior, then your Mediawiki or the database has been modified, most likely by an extension. As for whether its MySQL I don't see how since Mediawiki, or the extensions, control what goes in and what comes out.

Apache tells MediaWiki the correct title, and MediaWiki somehow decides to respond with the title being a-okay. If it was an Apache issue, then why does MediaWiki think that the page title is BIOWIKI here[1]? It even takes the effort of linking to a talk page that does not exist and colours the link red as it should. Or does MediaWiki use LOWER() in its SQL, but use the $_GET['title'] for its links, rather than using the {{PAGENAME}} given by the table? Also, you appear to have your version installed via subversion,[2] I am certain r86390 is that different from the MediaWiki 1.16.4 available on mw.org (which does not have this bug).
