i found the thread:

don't you have problems with the non-unix compliant applications on  
the case sensitive file system on the mac? i'd rather prefer only a  
case sensitive partition or a case sensitive disk image. maybe an  
optional script (similar to the one for setting the perl path) could  
be run after the installation to fix these not case sensitiv file  
systems issues?

while we are at mac installation: i also had to modify  
userconfig_lapw because on macosx the shell information is still  
stored in the netinfo database and not /etc/passwd:

instead of

  set usershell = `grep ^${user} /etc/passwd|awk -F: '{print $NF}'`

we used

  set usershell = `niutil -readprop / /users/${user} shell`

additionally, for a NIS environment:

  set usershell = `ypmatch ${user} passwd | awk -F: '{print $NF}'`
