I can only say that I am not having the same behavior. Windows documentation clearly states that variable names are not case-sensitive (so that "you can combine uppercase and lowercase letters in your variable names to make your code more readable", as they say). Now, I *guess* that my patch would not change the behavior of GDB in your case, as the run-time check would return "case sensitive". That's a guess... Could you try it?
