Are you running Win9x or WinNT? Under WinNT, lfn support from within
DOS programs is broken, so the LFN=x variable does nothing.
In this case, remove the installation and re-unzip with a dos-based
unzipper that ingores LFN's.
Under Win9x, look at the file problems.txt for a list of common
difficulties with gxx2.8.11 etc. I went through that and my troubles
ended, but I'm not sure which alteration I made it was that licked it.
