Does your environment or DJGPP.ENV specify LFN=y?  DJGPP comes by default 
with long filenames support disabled (you will see a line "+LFN=n" inside 
DJGPP.ENV); to enable the LFN support, you need either to override it 
with a variable you set in the environment, or edit DJGPP.ENV and replace 
the above line with "+LFN=y").
