Why are you not using FreeBSD-9.1-RELEASE-amd64-memstick.img and just
write it with dd to the stick? Not booting?

e.g:

% ls -la /usr/bin/[Mm]ail 
-r-xr-xr-x  3 root  wheel  82196  2 jan 16:18 /usr/bin/Mail
-r-xr-xr-x  3 root  wheel  82196  2 jan 16:18 /usr/bin/mail

% ls -la /usr/bin/[Cc][Cc]
-r-xr-xr-x  3 root  wheel  176888  2 jan 16:16 /usr/bin/CC
-r-xr-xr-x  2 root  wheel  395648  2 jan 16:16 /usr/bin/cc

Unetbootin is propably creating a FS (VFAT), that is not
case-sensitive.
