I'll have to look at what texhash does. I know there is another lurking
issue (how to put the axiom.sty file someplace where tex can find it)
that needs to be addressed and I believe that texhash will solve the problem.
I'll look into this and get back to you.

The case sensitive issue was addressed by Juergen Weiss a few months ago.
I've been remiss in adding it for no obvious reason. Anyway it's been
applied, tested, and added to the CVS (thanks, Juergen). . So now Axiom's
pathnames should not be case sensitive.
Is it possible to get an electronic version of your reclos paper?
I'd like to read it.
