Fixcase Extension Error

Matt,

The extension is pretty much useless with the current casefold handling 
in Mercurial on windows.
'hg stat' doesn't distinguish the case of names of version controlled 
files.
It won't list the files that had the filename case changed, and the 
extension won't change them back like it used.

For me the case of files on disk is important due to some cygwin 
scripts, so I am using a patch that makes hg recognise the case change 
on windows.
This behaviour is on a config file switch. I can share the patch if 
there's interest.

Andrei
