New "binary" character set should appear in next release. It provides case-sensitive comparisons. It even doesn't require recompiling mysqld, you need just to put binary.conf file into /share directory of mysql installation, then restart mysqld with "--default-character-set=binary" argument. If you would like me to send binary.conf file, please let me know.
