Hmm, I can get this fail without using Bash with LFN=N. Below is an excerpt 
of the program I used on my own machine to trigger the problem.

...

  mkdir("longlonglong", S_IWUSR);
  chdir("/dev/d/djgpp/projects/sfn/longlonglong");
  mkdir("dir", S_IWUSR);
  chdir("/dev/d/djgpp/projects/sfn/longlonglong/dir");

  fd = open("file", O_WRONLY | O_TEXT | O_CREAT | O_TRUNC, S_IWUSR);

[fd will be -1 when LFN=N.]

I've uploaded a new version of Bash 2.04 to 
http://members.nbci.com/snowball3/djgpp/ that avoids this error.
