I made a few small changes to Unzip that make it support LFN with DJGPP. 
I think we should make this version the one that is available with the
DJGPP archives (the current `unzip386.exe' is compiled with v1.x, I
think), so the archives are unzipped correctly on Windows 95.  There is
one problem:  it will not work on a DOS machine that doesn't have CWSDPMI
(or some othe DPMI) installed.  This problem can be dealt with in one of
two ways: 

	* Bind Unzip.exe with PMODE/DJ
	* Make csdpmiNb.zip be a self-extracting archive.

Personally, I like the first solution better.  (Btw, what happens if such
a stand-alone executable is run under Windows?)

Should I upload the patched sources of Unzip to DJ's incoming/?

(I plan to submit the changes to Unzip maintainers in a few days, after I 
run the program a bit.)
