It is not a bug. We don't promise that autoprops patterns are
case-insensitive.

I can reproduce this, but again, it's not really a bug -- it's an
artefact of the config file format, where section and value names _are_
considered to be case-insensitive. I find that's a misfeature, even
though I did design the format myself ... :( Anyway, because of our
compatibility guarantees, we can't really make the config section and
value names case-sensitive.
However, there's a workaround for what you want to do:
*.[Xx][Mm][Ll] = svn:mime-type=text/xml
-- Brane
