This qualifies on the Newsgroup top 10 problems. :) It has to do with long
filenames and the program that unzipped the ZIP files.

For example, if WinZIP extracts your zips, it names the file stream~1.h (Win95
style long names). If you inform the compiler of this (djgpp.env: LFN=y) then
there will be no problem.

PKUNZIP for dos will truncate the filename to 8 positions to STREAMBU.h which is
what you did. Djgpp.env LFN=n and any too long file names will be cut off at 8
letters.

Any conflicts in LFN vs. the extractor can lead to errors on long filename
problems.
