Yes, you can get that by setting auto-mode-case-fold.
But for some reason that still escapes me, Richard is strongly opposed to
activating it by default.
Because it is too drastic for the actual problem, and likely to often
be wrong. If a certain file name extension is normally used in
different case patterns, let's make its element in auto-mode-alist
match them all. That is not drastic, and it does the job.
