I don't know, I've tried all this stuff and nothing works.  I have
LFN=3DY in my environment.  I have -v on the command line and it doesn't
tell me anything.  I'm using windows xp on both computers.  I've taken
cygwin out of my path.  I've tried reinstalling using the instructions
on the zip picker page.  I'm using 3.23 because that's what my
professor gave the class, but I've tried the newest version and
there's little difference.  It still can't find files with long file
names.  I can't even use "make -f Makefilenml" even though that file
is sitting in the current directory.
