Does it happens with or without LFN support in FreeDOS?

If with then I suspect that this could be related to absence of implementation
some LFN related DOS call for DJGPP. I sometimes met this when trying to
run configure scripts under FreeDOS (mostly though DOSEMU+FreeDOS).

The solution could be either
- fixing FreeDOS (if DOSEMU is being used then
   part of LFN related function should be fixed there)
- providing fallbacks to non LFN calls for FreeDOS (or when related LFN call
   results in according error code)
