My company ran into the same problem with our cross platformness. We were 
able to work somewaht around this using the foobarwee.c =&gt; foobar~1.c 
type fixes. We do not use gcc though so I am not sure if this will fix 
things.

&gt; Well, Ive been playign with the windows port.
&gt; 
&gt; First problem is that gcc under Win95 expects 8.3 filenames because its
&gt; basicly a DOS interface port of gcc (runs in a DSO box).
&gt; 
&gt; This means, with our current file names, we will NEVER compile
&gt; under gcc.
&gt; 
&gt; Suggestions?  I coudl change the names but upgrading is gonna be a
&gt; pain. It woudl be better is we went to 8.3 for all cold source....
