>Description:
We're running our current TTS application with MySQL (on Unix).  All database,
table and column names are in lower-case.  However, we need to access this
database with a new application which (for some reason) converts all
table and column names in its SELECT statements to uppercase.

Since MySQL is case-sensitive on Unix, I added the statement
  set-variable = lower_case_table_names=1
to /etc/my.cnf.  However, statements like
  SELECT COLUMN FROM TABLE;
still fail with error 1146, while
  SELECT COLUMN FROM table
works.  It seems that lower_case_table_names is not utilized in SELECT
(and probably other) statements.
>How-To-Repeat:
Create a table with lower-case name, activate lower_case_table_names=1,
try to access the table in upper-case with SELECT statement.
>Fix:
Support lower_case_table_names for SELECT statments, too.
