The PEP specifies the lib-old directory to hold the old case name so that the svn rename won't lead to two files in the same directory. I was hoping that creating the stub in lib-old would allow a simple svn rename for the original module on a case-sensitive file-system and the case-insensitive file-systems would just be able to deal with it. Is that just not going to work?

Oh, and I am really sorry, Alexandre, but the PixMapWrapper rename should have been taken out of the PEP as the entire Mac directory is going away, so the rename is kind of pointless since the module is going to be deleted.

Well, I guess I really messed up on that one. So, do you have any idea on how to revert the changes?
