[geeklog-devel] Interesting bug - path collision

[Damien Hodgkin]

How about adding a small check to see if your running on a windows system, and 
then make sure the correct file is included by doing a regex on the file name 
to make sure it is Mail.php and not mail.php. 

You can use case to your advantage on a windows system, it's just a matter of 
how you do it, what tools you utilize and think outside of the four paned 
window ;)
