I think the changes I sent make the above work correctly, at least
most of the time, even though they don't actually _force_ a
case-sensitive search (which is almost impossible to do without
rewriting lots of code).

So I suggest that you run with the modified Info for a while and see
if it does what you want.  If you see something that still doesn't
work as you think it should, please come back and report that case
here.
