This is incorrect.  The compiler is indeed case-sensitive, but it uses DOS
file I/O to open and read the include files, and DOS will happily let you
open `stdio.h' no matter what case do you use.  Even Windows 95 (which
preserves filename letter-case, but is still case-insensitive) will let
you use either case.
