SUMMARY
The standard names for several standard C++ headers differ only by case. This causes collision problems when the environment includes a case-insensitive file system.



MORE INFORMATION
If you install C++ header files on a case-insensitive file system, you will have to contend with this. To avoid the problem and make correct use of the set of header files provided with C++, install the header files on a case-sensitive file system like NTFS or NFS.
