This is maybe a plea to Rainer Schnitker to use a zipper that preserves long
file names.

1. Changing the include - PATHS:s doesn't solve the name conflict.
2. With RSXNTDJ v.1.5.0 changing the environment variable has minor effect.
You can try this:

C:\rsxnt>set C_INCLUDE_PATH=
C:\rsxnt>set CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=
C:\rsxnt>gcc -v hello.cpp
Reading specs from c:/rsxntdj/lib/specs
gcc version 2.8.1
.........
GNU CPP version 2.8.1 (80386, BSD syntax)
#include "..." search starts here:
#include <...> search starts here:
 c:/djgpp/lang/cxx
 c:/djgpp/include
 c:/rsxntdj/include/mssdk
 c:/rsxntdj/include/win32
 c:/djgpp/lang/cxx
 c:/djgpp/lib/gcc-lib/djgpp/2.81/include
 c:/djgpp/include
End of search list.
............

You have no C_INCLUDE_PATH and no CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH but you still get the
directories listed above visited for inclusion. Weird? Yeah, but that's the
way it works with RSXNTDJ 1.5.0
And if anybody can give an explanation that surely would be appreciated.
