With those values it works for me as expected. Maybe it's a problem with
your configuration. Try starting emacs with 'emacs -q' and evaluate the
variables with:

M-x eval-expression 

(setq dabbrev-case-distinction t       
      dabbrev-case-fold-search t
      dabbrev-case-replace t           
      abbrev-upcase-means-case-search nil)

RET

I hardly use dabbrev and I'm afraid I can't give you any more tips.
Try asking <emacs-devel@gnu.org> as well.
