You can't solve this by trying to do different things on different operating 
systems. This bug depends on file system properties, not OS.

Also I don't think you can just lower case the path and do a comparison, 
because there are funky characters that don't round trip lower->upper->lower. 
And you certainly can't do this for just the last component of the path name - 
any component of the path could have changed case.

I still think the best avenue would be to first try straight os.rename, and if 
that fails (maybe only if target exists), the logic that is currently in 
shutil.move.
