It has nothing to do with Visual Studio as it doesn't care about the casing.
The problem is in the CMake generator. The tables in (eg.
Source/cmVS10LinkFlagTable.h) map from linker flags to XML elements in the
resulting .vcxproj file.
One such example is the entry:
{"SubSystem", "SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWSCE",
"WindowsCE", "WindowsCE", 0},
This maps a flag
/SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWSCE
to
<Subsystem>
WindowsCE
</Subsystem>
As you can see the entries in the table are in upper case. And the mapping does
only work if the flags are uppercase to.
Maybe a better solution would be to do this matching in a case in sensitive
way, this way it would work in any case even with user passed flags in lower
case.

Rith I think I had a too simplistic view here. But even the old fix doesn't
seem to work with VS. I think the /ENTRY point also needs to be set for the
DLLs, I will try if I can find out how to set this.
