Description
We found that Wordpress's urls are case sensitive. This means urls will work like this:
- /site/2008-10-09/
- /site/2008-10-09/Tuesday/
- /site/2008-10-09/Friday/
But not:
- /site/2008-10-09/tuesday/
- /site/2008-10-09/Tuesday/
we found where in the Wordpress core that causes this and with two minor changes we can make urls case insensitive.

this is less of a WP bug than it is of an Apache "feature". on non-windows systems, urls are case-sensitive. it certainly is a weird option, but it's they way it is
plus, making it case insensitive would also require to redirect to the "correct" url.
