Isn't it? https://github.com/cygwin/cygwin/blob/55e5d9bf0f76f2f270ee8a3cef1da0bc646f72bf/winsup/cygwin/fhandler/base.cc#L1944-L1945 https://sourceware.org/pipermail/cygwin-patches/2016q4/008626.html Comment from emacs source: Use pathconf with _PC_CASE_INSENSITIVE or _PC_CASE_SENSITIVE if those flags are available. As of this writing (2019-09-15), Cygwin is the only platform known to support the former (starting with Cygwin-2.6.1), and macOS is the only platform known to support the latter. */ -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
