We'd probably want to take a closer look at what the issue really is,
including teTeX version numbers. It could be a permanent change in
teTeX v2+ in which case we're going to see the effect all over the
place as it gets into major Linux distros, or it could be an
installation problem with Debian-unstable which should go away. 

Then again, does "blue" and "Blue" really do different things? In a
"no-op or fix" situation, we might choose to do the change...
