    Have SameFile() do case-insensitive comparisons

    It appears that binkd will force filenames to lower-case in at least
    some cases. When this happens, the MSG file no longer points to the
    attached file, and the correlation would fail.

    Actually correctly checking if a MSG file references a specific
    file is made exceptionally complex by tools that mess with the
    names (such as binkd) and case-insensitive file systems.

    This is technically broken in stupid edge cases, but I doubt I'll
    ever care enough to fix this.
