Details:

These two configure options:
   --enable-case-insensitive-file-system
  --disable-case-insensitive-file-system
should have different effects but do not: the second seems
to work incorrectly.

I did not regenerate 'configure'. The session below used MSYS,
but I would guess that doesn't matter.

$./configure --enable-case-insensitive-file-system >/dev/null
$grep HAVE_CASE_INSENSITIVE_FS config.h
#define HAVE_CASE_INSENSITIVE_FS 1

$make distclean >/dev/null
$./configure --disable-case-insensitive-file-system >/dev/null
$grep HAVE_CASE_INSENSITIVE_FS config.h
#define HAVE_CASE_INSENSITIVE_FS 1

$make distclean >/dev/null
$./configure >/dev/null
$grep HAVE_CASE_INSENSITIVE_FS config.h
/* #undef HAVE_CASE_INSENSITIVE_FS */

Although the FAQ
  https://savannah.gnu.org/maintenance/WhenSvN
says SVN isn't available yet, that page was last edited six months
ago and seems out of date in light of this post by one of the
savannah hackers a month ago:

I'd guess this is the savannah svn repository he's referring to:
  https://savannah.nongnu.org/svn/?group=scleaner
in case anyone wants to see a concrete example.
