[p4] filename case woes: cannot rename Foo.H to Foo.h

Hi,

We have a perforce server running on windows 2003, and mostly windows-based
clients.  Unfortunately, we have a number of check-ins where "Foo.h" was
accidentally named "Foo.H".  This doesn't bother MSVC, but it does bother
gcc on linux.  :-(

How can I rename the file?

I've tried the P4V "Rename/Move" command (gives "no permission" error),
and simply deleting it and re-adding it (file comes back with original name).

Any ideas?

Thanks,
-Steve
