If you used Ant to build your project on Windows and ever had your supposedly uppercased directory name in your war file turned to lowercased directory name, here's the thing: it's not ant. It's winzip.
http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/war.html
Here's the note from ant:
"We regulary receive bug reports that this task is creating the WEB-INF directory, and thus it is our fault your webapp doesn't work. The cause of these complaints lies in WinZip, which turns an all upper-case directory into an all lower case one in a fit of helpfulness. Please check that jar xvf yourwebapp.war shows the same behaviour before filing another report."
