When using the DBCS image, the LIBNAME options PRESERVE_TAB_NAMES=,
PRESERVE_COL_NAMES= and PRES= are ignored.  The results are uppercase
name values even if the option values are set to YES and the original
case requested was not uppercase.

For example :

   libname x db2 pres=yes;

   data x.a;
   aBcD=1;
   run;
   proc print data=x.a; run;

   Obs    ABCD  <==== name is upcased when it should have been as typed

    1      1

Running the same code on a NON-DBCS image, the case is preserved as
expected.

   Obs    aBcD          <== case is preserved as expected
    1      1
