The normalization is not silly.  
The really silly thing is that by default their file system is case insensitive,
while many command line tools are not.

I don't know what they did, but I know from Lazarus:It's not a big deal. Lazarus
works since years on OS X and only needed a function to compare file names,
which calls the OS X function. Of course Lazarus already supported Linux. It can
be hard to port a Windows application to OS X.
