This is only one of the problems. Take a look at lang/cxx and lang/cxx/std: there are a lot of files there whose names exceed the DOS 8+3 limits. > How about making a copy of streambuf.h with > an 8.3 filename and editing the nested include within iostream.h? You suggest a manual solution. This is error prone (what if someone who ports GCC forgets to do that?), and it doesn't solve the case when a new header is introduced with a new release of GCC that wasn't known before. > This could reduce the FAQs even though it does not actually fix the > problem.

Anyway, thanks for the suggestions.
