When I use 
   :e file* 
under cygwin (a Unix emulator running on
Windows), I get an error saying "E77: Too many filenames".  But in fact
there is only one such file.  However, there are other files matching
FILE*.  How can I turn off this behavior so that vim under cygwin performs
case-sensitive globbing?  I've searched the vim help pages but can't
seem to find it, if it exists.  For comparison, bash has a nocaseglob
option which, if set, matches  filenames in a case-insensitive fashion
when performing pathname expansion.  

P.S.  Thanks for vim!  Like thousands of other people, I use it everywhere: 
unix, windows, cygwin.
