t3lib/ has unfortunately some oddities. I suggested to rename those few, but never found the time
and energy to provide a patch for that. typo3/ should also use an naming scheme, but doesn't :(

I hope for 4.4 to clean up the directories and get a strictly name based autoloading for t3lib/ and
typo3/.
