I think that's what I will end up doing indeed. LFN in DOS always has 
been a hack anyway. Also, it's the second time someone reports that 
FDINST/FDNPKG trashed the filesystem when trying to use LFN. I am very 
much inclined to explicitely disabling LFN on both FDNPKG and FDINST. I 
think however that renaming files is not a good option - it should 
rather be handled during the package creation. FDINST/FDNPKG would then 
simply have to reject any package that contains shady filenames inside.
