Summary: [1.33.1]Paths not equivalent on Windows when casing differs

Initial Comment:
If the casing differs of the native paths stored in boost::filesystem::path objects. Casing should not matter  on Windows. The code snippet below demonstrates the problem:

    path        p1( "C:\\Windows", native );
    path        p2( "C:\\Windows", native );
    path        p3( "c:\\Windows", native );

    set<path>   paths;

    paths.insert( p1 );

    //  This one is fine. If the casing of the
    //  native paths is the same, it is found
    //  in the set
    assert( paths.end() != paths.find( p2 ) );
    //  This one fires, although it shouldn't
    //  on Windows. The paths are equivalent
    assert( paths.end() != paths.find( p3 ) );
