You have a mess-up with long vs short file names.  It seems that you 
unzipped the zip files with a DOS unzip program which doesn't support 
long file names, but you are using DJGPP on Windows 9X.

Section 8.7 of the DJGPP FAQ list explains how to deal with such 
problems.  In your case, the best way is to remove the entire DJGPP 
installation and re-unzip the files again, this time using a utility 
which supports long file names.  Otherwise, you will have to rename the 
files from here to eternity.
