        I seem to remember that double-clicking on an file icon to have
        Emacs open the file passes the 8+3 allcaps filename to Emacs,
        so with the above change, doing it on a C file would open it in
        C++ mode since the extension would be .C rather than .c.

    Not any more, but Samba mounts have a problem where if the filename
    fits into 8+3, the filename is always reported as allcaps.

That sounds like sufficient reason not to try to depend on
the apparent case pattern.
