This patch also gets rid of what I think many would consider undesirable
behaviour allowing, to some extent, case-insensitive matching of file names. It
used to try opening, for example, "fileName.Pdf", then failing that try opening
"filename.pdf", then failing that try opening "FILENAME.PDF". This attempt at
matching the case doesn't make sense in a case-sensitive file system. Also, it
would try to open "filename.pdf" without even checking the reason why opening
"fileName.Pdf" had failed in the first place, meaning that it could have
initially been a problem with file permissions.
