Depends on the bug. Just like every other development team they have more bugs than engineers so they have to prioritize. Some things get fixed quickly, others take a while, and some never get attention. I don’t know who maintains the libc that Apple uses. If it’s FreeBSD then they won’t consider it a bug because their file systems are case sensitive.
As for what to do, that should be obvious: Spell the path correctly, where spell includes case. You also need to run gnc-update-fq again to get JSON::Parse installed.
