I suspect it's probably because the linux files use lowercase filenames.
In the notes Andrew mentions that it's important to use uppercase folder
names for the OS 8-9 version of ldglite.

I'm not sure why, but I think the old MAC parts distribution from the
days of ldglite 0.5 had uppercase file and folder names. It would be
nice if things could be fixed so both MAC versions could use the linux
parts distribution.
