Hi Wojciech (and interested others),

OK, this is just a first impression, but I d/l'ed Crabtree's sources
and took a look, and it seems that the approach he takes would also
work for an LFN driver for plain DOS.  In fact, there doesn't seem to
be a lot of NT-specific stuff in the code, so maybe your work could be
easily adapted for use as an LFN driver for plain DOS?
