OK - So - this is a bug and needs to be fixed? You would think that an
HTTP server as popular as Apache would be able to support case
insensitive URLs.
    

There is no such thing as a "case insensitive URL".
  
Yeah - run Windows based servers and you get case insensitive URLs.

There are open, published internetworking specifications that define
precisely what a URL is.  It can be botched to appear case-insensitive,
though at a *very* high cost to the network infrastructure.
  
I want case insensitive URLs.

  
For that matter you would think that Linux should 
support case insensitive file systems.
    

You mean like Windows filesystems?  I'm not aware of any filesystem
that Windows supports but Linux doesn't.  Of course, support
doesn't mean recommendation.
  

In Windows if you access a file by any case it matches.
