Summary:                    file glob case sensitivity depends on platform
Description: 
[The OS did not fit in the above field, so here is the full version:
Mac OS 10.11.3 / SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (x86_64)]

Cmakes file glob returns files regardless of the case used in the glob
expression on Mac OS (even on a case sensitive filesystem). On Linux glob
returns the files which match the case being used in the expression, as would be
returned by the ls terminal command.

Steps to Reproduce: 
Have two files where the suffix differs in case, use cmake file glob with on of
the cases used in a suffix.
Example:
# directory
src/
  foo.f90
  bar.F90

# ls on Mac
ls src/*.F*
bar.F90

# cmake on Mac
file(GLOB all_sources ${src}/*.F*
message(STATUS "all_sources: ${all_sources}")
-- all_sources: /.../src/bar.F90;/.../src/foo.f90

# ls on Linux
ls src/*.F*
bar.F90

# cmake on Linus
file(GLOB all_sources ${src}/*.F*
message(STATUS "all_sources: ${all_sources}")
-- all_sources: /.../src/bar.F90
