It is very picky under W98 - this bat file works on two systems I tried:

cd \
mkdir "My Downloads"
cd "MYDOWN~1"
cd
mkdir junk
\djgpp\bin\mv41 --version
\djgpp\bin\mv41 junk junk
dir /s

It appears the cd using the short name may be required; but then cd shows
the long name.

And yes, this was done with the newest file utils 4.1 built with the newest
V2.04 alpha (from Andrew's build zips).
