You might want to play around with "managed mounts" ('man mount'), if
they do what I think I heard they do (namely, "deal" with such things
for you). Supposedly you can get case sensitivity - in the sense that
'Readme' and 'README' can co-exist - out of them as well.
(Speaking of case sensitivity, is it a Windows limitation that Cygwin
can't do this? I'm pretty sure it isn't an NTFS limitation, as Interix
has true case-sensitivity.)

Interix, Sphinterix. Cygwin apps don't crash. :-)
