Comment (by Piotr DomaƄski):

 Firstly it is not because of CamelCase but because of matching value of
 this setting to file in /usr/share/zoneinfo.
 If this file does not exist than exception is raised.
 Secondly i am not sure should this ticket be fixed.
 If there are two different timezones which are equal when we ignore cases,
 than it is ambigous, which timezone should be chosen.
 Of course it is possible to match this file without taking care of case
 sensivity, but to submit PR i need decision what to.
