After creating a file in all upper-case, I can access it for a short time using either the all upper-case name or the all lower-case name. After a short amount of time (or a umount/mount), I can only access the file via the all lower-case name. I'm currently using kernel 2.6.4, but I've been seeing this since at least November of last year. I've talked to a few people to see if anyone else can reproduce this and so far, I'm the only one that has been able to (save for the person that reported this bug http://bugs.xiph.org/show_bug.cgi?id=413).
