Confirmed on intrepid, here are the details requested by Thierry Carrez:

Samba versions:

libsmbclient 2:3.2.3-1ubuntu3.4 samba install ok installed
libwbclient0 2:3.2.3-1ubuntu3.4 samba install ok installed
samba-common 2:3.2.3-1ubuntu3.4 samba install ok installed
smbclient 2:3.2.3-1ubuntu3.4 samba install ok installed
smbfs 2:3.2.3-1ubuntu3.4 samba install ok installed

The rename error happens when attempting to rename through nautilus by
only changing the case of one of the letters of the file name.  It is
exactly as the original bug writer described.

In my case the share is mounted through fstab using CIFS with this entry: 
//192.168.0.100/mybook /mnt/mybook cifs auto,uid=joshua,gid=users,credentials=/root/.credentials,file_mode=0775,dir_mode=0775 0 0

I attempted to rename the file using the smbclient through the command line and this is what was returned: 
rename 01-Satisfied.mp3 01-satisfied.mp3
NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_COLLISION renaming files \Music\Library\01-Satisfied.mp3 -> \Music\Library\01-satisfied.mp3

output of this commandd 'smbclient -L //remote_system': 
Domain=[UBUNTU-SERVER] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.2.3]

My server is running Ubuntu Server 8.10, which is what the samba share
is located on.

Hope this helps.
