Thanks for this report. I can confirm that it does this on my system (Linux) and that it is not the behaviour that we want.

The symptom I see is that, with this config file, no properties are set during the "svn add *.pl". If the "*.PL" and "*.pl" config lines are exchanged, then the properties are set as expected on *.pl.
Presumably the cause is something like the config file keys being treated as case-insensitive when read from the config file, but then as case-sensitive when matched to file names.
If nobody offers to fix this straight away, then please could you file an issue in the issue tracker.
Thanks.

That sounds like what I saw.

I never could figure out a simple explanation for the behavior, and
naturally was too lazy to actually debug it :-(

This is already filed; it's issue #2036.
