CVS working directories on FAT

I was hoping to be able to share CVS working directories between boots to Linux and Windows by putting them on a FAT partition. However, I'm running into the problem that case is not preserved for file names not longer than 8 characters. For instance, a file "README" in the repository becomes "readme" in the working directory, and cvs then becomes confused.
Does anyone know of a way of coping with this? (Aside from simply avoiding having problem files in the repository.)
