I fell in this trap quite often too. I wrote examples with
\includegraphics{example-image-A} (as the image shows a large A this
is quite natural ...) which worked fine on my windows and the people
complained that it fails on linux.

So on the whole I'm quite grateful that kpathsea is now case
insensitive and it is not only Apple who is to blame ;-)
