Sure, there's even a TSR that already does that (the FAQ mentions it in
section 3.3). I thought you were asking about the Windows code which
supports LFN. That part isn't possible in DOS mode.
Btw, currently, none of the several available TSRs that support LFN in
DOS are good enough to run all DJGPP ports of GNU tools. Seems like some
subtle aspects of the LFN support are not yet up to their specs.
