AmigaOS filesystems are traditionally case insensitive, yes.

Tell that the Perl guys...

Well, .gnu came to my mind because it is already used that way.

AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS is 2.49 only, so it would be AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS.
And the code would have to check for the existance of the perl subdirectory
- AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS silently ignores nonexistant subdirectories.
And there is another problem with that: Some subdirectories are excluded
depending on $host. perl is one of them. For other directories, I just
remove them before the final AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS from $subdirs, where "them"
is a list of subdirectories depending on $host. It should be possible to
make this conditional, but it will remove uniformity.
So for me, .gnu sounds easier...
Yours, Rüdiger.
