Question about Running GNU Utilities on Windows XP

Hi,

We are running into a problem using the GNU utilities, (specifically
TAIL.EXE) on Windows XP when we run them against names that are not in the
8.3 format.

For example:
The command: tail paratestdatalog.out
  produces a 'No file or directory' error

The command: tail paratestdatalog.gold
     produces a 'No file or directory' error

The command: tail parate~1.gold
 produces a 'No file or directory' error

The command: tail parate~1.out
  works

Is there is an update or do we need to recompile or something?

Thanks,

Yu Wang
