Update conflict after upgrading from 1.11.5 to 1.11.6

Hi,

We just upgraded our CVS server from version 1.11.5 to 1.11.6.  Everything
went smoothly except for one case when I updated a working directory for a
project I had checked out with the earlier CVS version.

It seems we had a file in the 'attic' of one of our directories that had the
same name as file in the main directory except for the case of the filename.
The file in the main directory was named 'Foo.c' while the file in the attic
was named 'foo.c'.  My attempt to update the working directory resulted in
this error message on the client:

cvs update (in directory C:\build\proj1\)
? SimpleUIHandler.class
cvs server: Updating .
cvs update: move away ./foo.c; it is in the way
C Foo.c
cvs server: Updating syntax

I "fixed" my problem by renaming the file in the attic to be consistent with
the file in the main directory.

Is anyone aware of what may have changed between the 1.11.5 release and the
1.11.6 release that could have caused this issue?

Server OS:
Linux 1.2.14-6.1.1smp
CVS 1.11.6

Client OS:
Win2K Workstation SP 2
CVS  1.10.8

Thanks,
