Both 'include_once' and 'require_once' do a case sensitive job on Win32,
although the Win32 filesystem itself isn't case sensitive. This may cause you a 'Cannot
redeclare class' error when a class definition file gets included twice incorrectly. For
example, with a file 'test.class.php' containing:
<?php
class CTest {}
?>
executed by the file 'require.php':
<?php
require_once 'test.class.php';
require_once 'Test.class.php';
?>
you would receive the error:
Cannot redeclare class ctest in Test.class.php on line 2
Tested with PHP v4.2.1 on Windows 2000.
