Are you sure ? Normally HFS+ is NOT case-sensitive but only case-preserving:
that is, if you name your file "FoObAr" then HFS+ will store it that way
but "foobar" is a collision (same is true for FAT32 and NTFS, btw). Have you
explicitly set the option to use case-sensitivity on HFS+ or are you using
ZFS ?
