Gah, I'll bite. 59 chars of perl, 74 chars altogether.

find|perl -ne'm#.*(/.*)#;push@{$a{$1}},$_}foreach(%a){$#$_>0&&print"@$_\n"'

And the only thing it'll break on is files with new-lines in them (yes, 
it's possible! The only things you can be guaranteed not to find in a 
filename are / and the NULL byte).

It's an extra 2 chars for the case-insensitive version too ;)

I feel it could be a little shorter, but I can't see how at the moment.

Bernard.
