Class names can crop up during execution as well though. This is valid PHP:

  $classname = $row_I_got_from_mysql['classname'];
  $object = new $classname;

I'm sure this can still be solved though. It's not trivial, but it's not "takes over 9 years to fix" complex either.

PHP could just use the approach NTFS uses on Windows and convert to upper case instead:

Which would not help in this case, since in turkish the upper-case representation of `i` is not `I` but a different symbol. So the class you're looking for would not exist.

Oops - looks like you're actually right there. For some reason, I thought I'd read that i and ı were both mapped to I.
