NameNumericTail only needs to be set if you want to use an installation
made by an LFN-aware unzipper on a  system where DOS-box LFN's are not
supported (DOS or NT).  As for LFN, perhaps you are using v2.02 where
LFN=Y is default.  Or, if you have no DJGPP installation and don't set
LFN, they are used.
