This is probably not a bug. We can't see how you generated the user, but
if you want to have it case-sensitive you have to double-quote it (as
you would have to do for any other named object in the database):

  CREATE USER "Radim" WITH PASSWORD 'secret';

instead of:

  CREATE USER Radim WITH PASSWORD 'secret';

The second variant will create a lower-case user radim.

Hope that helps
