I have a makefile of unix origin which contains some long filenames.
When I built DJGPP under Windows 95 I found that I had to set LFN=y
in the DJGPP.ENV as per the FAQ. However, the same thing does not work
under Windows NT 4.0. I've verified that the problem is indeed with
the long filenames by manually editing the makefile to use the short
versions. Setting LFN via the Control Panel/System/Environment does
not work either. Is there a fix? (Am using DJPP ver 2.01.).
