Hello,

That's right, I was not expecting NDN will use it as it is already out of the 
spec.
You can change the

else if (((r->BL >= 'A') && (r->BL <= 'Z')) ||
          ((r->BL >= 'a') && (r->BL <= 'z')))
   /* NDN feeds the actual ASCII drive letter to this function */
   used_drive = (r->BL & 0x1f) - 1;

into

else if (((r->BL >= 'A') && (r->BL <= '`')) ||
          ((r->BL >= 'a') && (r->BL <= 'z')))
   /* NDN feeds the actual ASCII drive letter to this function */
   used_drive = (r->BL - 1) & 0x1f;

I think the lowercase case can remain as it is (there is no correspondance 
between lower and upper case for letters above 'z' and more over it goes 
outside 
of 7 bits ASCII range).

Regards,

Damien
