A *lot* has changed.  DJGPP v2.0 had subtle bugs in its long file name
support.  Many library functions changed to support LFN better.

I urge you to not give up on the latest RCS release.  From your last
message it seemed like a simple change in the library function
`remove' would fix the problem.  But you never did follow up on my
reply where I asked some wuestions that would allow me to have a clear
notion of the problem locus.  I would like very much to have this
problem solved in the latest version of DJGPP.  Please help me do that.
