In the past there have been some problems with status listings of untracked files when core.ignorecase is in use. I fixed some cases with a commit that went into v1.7.8, but some problems remained. Karsten Blees (cc'd) did some work that went into git v1.8.1.6, but I do not know off-hand if it would fix your case or not.

Can you try with a more recent version of git?
