This pattern doesn't seem to have been followed for MITMisc, as there is now

MITMisc.h - library header in libXext
mitmisc.h - extension constants, xextproto
mitmiscproto.h - protocol structures, xextproto

This fails on case-insensitive filesystems
(case-insensitive filesystems are also fail, but that's a separate issue :-) )

Attached are patches to rename the header in xextproto from mitmisc.h to 
mitmiscconst.h, which I think is the way to fix this if I've understood your 
mail correctly.

Apologies for not noticing this sooner.
