Two directory issues about abcl HOT 4 OPEN

As for 2., I don't understand the problem: DIRECTORY should be case sensitive, shouldn't it?

#661 fixes your first problem.

Where does it say directory is case sensitive? I'd expect it to be case sensitive on a case-sensitive file system, but MacOS isn't. Probe-file isn't case sensitive. Open isn't either.

After reading through the hyperspec's section on case in pathnames https://novaspec.org/cl/19_2_Pathnames#sec_19_2_2_1_2, I grant that you are more correct than I am. Technically, what matters is what argument is passed via the :case keyword when the pathname is constructed. I need to read through the ABCL code a bit more with this behavior in mind to see how conforming our behavior could possibly be. I have the feeling that we were never doing the right thing here, but could be surprised.
