            Bug ID: 57768
           Summary: Assumption of a case-insensitive filesystem on Darwin
                    is incorrect
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.7.3
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: preprocessor
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: alex@alex-smith.me.uk

Revision 175762 changed filename_cmp in libiberty to assume a case-insensitive
filesystem on Darwin. While it's true that this is the default, you can still
create case-sensitive HFS+ volumes.

This is causing issues for me building Haiku using a cross-compiler from my OS
X host (10.8.4) - Haiku requires building off a case-sensitive volume, but
because filename_cmp is performing comparisons case-insensitively I'm getting
various build issues. For example, there is a header String.h for the BeOS API
BString class, which includes the C library string.h. The preprocessor is just
matching the second header's name against the first header which it has already
seen using its cache, so the second one doesn't get included.

--- Comment #1 from Andrew Pinski <pinskia at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
Confirmed, I also build using a remote mounted NFS which is case sensitive .
I wonder the best way to really handle this.

--- Comment #2 from Andrew Pinski <pinskia at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
I was going to say GCC should depend on std::filesystem::path but that was not
added until C++17 and I think it still does not handle the case insenative
correctly, see https://reviews.llvm.org/D68033?id=222210 .
