[...] In the meantime, you can create a case-sensitive HFS+ filesystem somewhere (e.g. in a disk image, in another partition, on an external disk, or mounted over the network) where you'll get the behaviour you want.
Minor nit: HFS+ is case-preserving but not case-sensitive. HFSX (a minor revision to the HFS+ volume format) optionally supports case-sensitive file names. When using command line utilities such as diskutil and hdiutil you'll want to specify HFSX not HFS+.
Thank you, I thought I had received conflicting information regarding this point.
