I have tried both settings for LFN, and modified djgpp.env for both
settings and get no change.

I have produced a project, with the source file, and get exactly the
same error - apart from the extra directory that rhide builds (RHaaaaaa).

In the documentation, I see reference to temporary files of the form
ccaaaaaa.iin , or ccaaaaaa.inn with n an integer. My files are simply
ccaaaaaa.ii (or ccaaaaaa.i for c). Could this have anything to do with
it?

This is very frustrating, any other suggestions will be welcome!
