-: From my experience, it is better to test if y.tab.c exists, and if so,
-: "mv y.tab.c y_tab.c".

Is there a shell idiom for testing for lfn support (e.g., within
a Makefile)?  The LFN environment variable from djgpp.env isn't a
reliable indicator.  Perhaps something like this:

touch .foo && [ -f .foo ] && echo "LFN capable" && rm -f .foo
