I think you shouldn't try to reproduce the filesystem name comparison algorithm. Check if file exists or generate numeric name. I can't find where rfc6531 requires case flattening. The word "case" is used there in the meaning of "situation".

Case sensitivity is addressed in other RFCs relating to email and DNS. > Check if file exists or generate numeric name. Nonsense. You may not be in control of the names, and checking a file with stat(2) may not address the problem at hand (and: is many orders of magnitude different in cost as well).
