FWIW, Samba has the same issue with case, so you might look at how it
solves it.

I'm trying to convert a Windows VSS archive to Subversion and some
developer long ago named a file with the elipse character (ASCII 0x85) in
it, which Linux ext3 doesn't like. So if this code ever gets ported (say,
using winelib), those files are going to cause me more grief.
