Is this really necessary? As long as everything gives GDB the same
capitalization of the file (including debug info and any front end),
then we don't need to be case insensitive.

If you think this is an important feature I can make the variable
tri-state:

set support-dos-filenames (on|off|auto)

Auto would be case sensitive on POSIX hosts, on wouldn't, auto would
be the default.
