THANKS!

I am guessing that we have a bug in the rename or copy, append and delete
function under Squish in a Unix / Linux environment caused by file name case
sensitivity issues.

Now let's see if we can track down where in the code this bug is biteing.  :(
The "quick fix" for file name case issues is obviously not handling this
instance.

Take care.....
