The header file is in the working directory "." and a msdos.c is in a
sub-directory msdos.  In the msdos/makefile.dj2, VPATH=.;msdos      .
make is invoked as "make -fmsdos/makefile.dj2.  I am running the updated
released v2.0.  Make has no trouble finding msdos/msdos.c.  Within
msdos.c there is a line "#include "zip.h."  gcc cannot find zip.h even
when various combinations of -I-, -I.., -I../zip.h are put on the command
line.  The only things which work are:
the inelegant "copy /Y msdos/msdos.c msdos.c" ;
and the possibly unacceptable change in msdos.c to "#include "../zip.h."
Unacceptable because it is supposed to work with borland, microsoft, turbo
and whatcom etc. compilers and I can't test it with these programs.  The
makefiles are different, of course.

If my memory serves me, using -I.. worked in similar situations with v2beta3.
I hate to reinstall beta3 to test this but if I must, I will.  Is this
a real bug in the releasted v2?  If someone with a better recall of the
behavior of v2beta3 will confirm my recollection if be grateful.

Of course, suggestions of something else to try are most welcome, especially
if they work.:+)
