Is there a bug in the findfirst() and findnext() functions in DJGPP??? Or 
maybe in the ffblk struct. When I make a program that checks for all the 
files using findfirst() and findnext() passing the addres of an ffblk object 
then printing the filename, the filename is missing the first two 
characters. I do like this:

void main(void)
{
	struct ffblk fileinfo; 
	findfirst("*.*", &fileinfo, FA_ARCH); 
	cprintf("%s\n\r", fileinfo.ff_name);
}

if I use this statement to print the filename instead everything seems to 
work fine, but this isn't how you should have to do;

cprintf("%s\n\r", fileinfo.ff_name - 2);

Is this a bug in DJGPP's libraries or am I doing something wrong?
