The new version of tex4ht in TeX Live (checked in as rev. 3262)
contains both
texmf-dist/tex/generic/tex4ht/Arabicore.4ht
texmf-dist/tex/generic/tex4ht/arabicore.4ht
The same case difference occurs in the \Hinput{...} line within the
files; otherwise, they are identical.
Is there a need for these two files to exist, or is it an accident?
The distinction will be lost on case-insensitive file systems, so it
would be unwise for anything to depend on it.
In the case of the TeX Live repository, this situation creates
Subversion checkout difficulties when using a working copy on a case-
insensitive volume. Therefore, I'd like to delete one of the pair,
unless this will break something else.
