My main concern is that it is less dependent on the operating system but depends on the filesystem itself. HFS+ devices under MacOS X, VFAT mounts under Linux (or any other Unix like system mounting local "Windows drives" on the i386 platform), SMB or NFS mounts of filesystems residing on a server that runs a case insensitive filesystem and so on will not be case sensitive although the operating system would indicate the filesystems are sensitive. The opposite effect would be a Windows client accessing an NFS or Samba exported filesystem from a Unix box. I have no idea what the canonical path will be - whether Java will just look at the operating system, but I see too many "we don't really know" stuff here - we shouldn't rush and put it into Ant 1.4.1 IMHO, let's patch the 1.5 branch and collect some experience with it.
