I'm surprised no one else is complaining about this bug since it
really hinders software development under Debian.
For anyone who is interested, one solution is just to install the
experimental elf-gcc package. This one works fine

Hi Dirk,
I hope you don't mind me entering your comments (and my additional
comments) as another debian bug report. Hopefully, documenting these
problems will prevent a lot of redundant bug reports.

Version: 0.93R6 (Oct 27)
There should be a directory ./debian-0.93/ms-dos/disks with 8.3 names
for the boot, root, and base disks. Alternatively, the files themselves
could be given 8.3 names since (most of the time) they will be used
on MS-DOS systems.
