Thanks Paul.
After doing more poking around I see that eCosCentric offer long
filename support.
Also not sure what the deal would be with the 0.25 cents royalty to
microsoft you have to pay (At least that's what wikipedia claims).

Does someone know why the fatfs code converts all directory names to
uppercase (ie in set_raw_dentry_filename())?
I have looked at a number of other fatfs implementations and
they don't
enforce only uppcase names so I don't believe it is a requirement for
fat filesystem.
8.3 names must be uppercase. That's the way MS-DOS worked, that's how
Windows still works (for the 8.3 aliases), and that's the way anything that
reads a FAT volume will assume it works. Lower case letters are only
recorded in the long file names, under VFAT, which I don't believe eCos
supports yet.
