Can you send me samples of lines which have to be changed?  I'm no
Fortran programmer but I might find something to do this in Perl.

Another aproach - just run a compilation and find all the file names
it complains about, then either lookup these strings in the source
and fix them to the correct case or create symlinks from them to the
right file.
