I've read the FAQ -- is there *no* solution at all for the lack of
long filename support in DJGPP under WinNT??? I mean, NT supports long
filenames natively, so lack of Int 21h support should be a
non-issue... 

I'm trying to use DJGPP as a build/test environment under WinNT for
code that is moving from Win32 to VxWorks. I've got many filenames
that are much longer than 8.3, and changing the name would be a
*major* pain in the neck! (Can't dual-boot into Win95, since I'm using
NTFS).

Any suggestions on how to get around this would be appreciated!
