No.
This is entirely your problem.
The kernel build does not work, and is not intended to work on broken setups.
If you have a case-insensitive filesystem, you get to keep both broken parts.
I actively hate case-insensitive filesystems. It's a broken model in
so many ways. I will not lift a finger to try to help that
braindamaged setup.
