I fail to see the "underlying issue". The qmake "language" is case sensitive
like C, C++, Java, and lots of others.
The fact that on case insensitive file systems file names embedded in a
.pro file are not case sensitive has nothing to do with the language.
This is pretty much the same as using a file name within C++ source code.
