MS-DFS referral.

[Shirish Kalele]

The patch looks good. 

Speed is really the only reason the paths were being restricted to
lowercase; I didn't think ppl would be that concerned with case in their
dfs topology. 

Anyway, the next step would be to use the results of RESOLVE_DFSPATH all
over to prevent unix_convert being called twice for local pathnames.

Thanks,
Shirish
