Not exactly.  By default Mac OS X installs with case insensitivity (at least
in 10.4 Tiger).  But one can specify either case sensitivity (my preference,
currently using it on Snow Leopard) or case insensitivity.  See Disk
Utility.

I looked in sys/attr.h and found VOL_CAP_FMT_CASE_SENSITIV
& VOL_CAP_FMT_CASE_PRESERVING, but can't find the call that fils in these
attributes in a vol_capabilities_attr_t, so I don't know how to retrieve the
settings.
