Files whose names are FOOBAR.in.h are automatically renamed by djtar, the unpacking utility, to something like FOOBAR.in-h (and will appear as foobar.in- on plain DOS), so they are no problem. What I wanted to avoid were files whose name clash after 8+3 truncation, because these are not renamed automatically, but need user intervention for providing an alternative name, something end users will be stumped about.
