You don't say what OS are you using DJGPP on.  If it's Windows NT,
then this is expected: DJGPP programs cannot see long file names on
NT, only on Windows 9X and Windows 2000.

If you are using NT, remove the entire DJGPP installation and unzip
everything again, this time using the program unzip32.exe that is
available from the same place where you downloaded DJGPP.

The file README.1ST explains how to install DJGPP correctly on each
OS.
