It seems that you unzipped djgpp archives using archiver without long
file names (LFN) support, but tried to use DGPP under MS Windows 9X.
Compiler looks for headers with long file names but they aren't exist
due file name stripping during unzipping.
Solution: try to use WinZip or other archiver with LFN support to
extract DJGPP archives.
