I do not care for interpretation #2 ... especially in view of your
observation (confirmed here) that pre-8.3 releases didn't do this.
I think it's just a bug in 8.3.
+1 I think it would be very difficult to come up with a justification
for backslashes making a comparison case-sensitive. It's just…weird.
