No, you issue an error and refuse to compile it -- this forces the programmer/user to address the issue [artificially] caused by the file-system.

{Also, upon consideration, the file-system's case-sensitivity should NOT matter because of the library for compilation units -- ie this should handle the association between compilation-unit and file-name... GNAT's forgoing of the library-method, while at times convenient, seems to me to be the real culprit.}
