Please tell us more about your configuration.  This is a new problem.

LFN support should automatically be off unless there is LFN support 
detected on Int 21h, AH=71h.  In any case, you can turn off LFN support
with "SET LFN=N" at the command line (or autoexec.bat) or putting this 
symbol in the djgpp.env file.  But this actually sounds like you are
somehow using a V1.x library header which had the structure not be packed.
