If you post the contents of your autoexec.bat and an exact transcription of the
error message, you'll get better help.  I think that most of the time the
failure to find the include files has to do with the absence of the DJGPP
environment variable.  Please issue the DOS command:
set >environ.txt
and post the contents of environ.txt here too.

If that's a different message than the one that says that the header files
can't be found, then you could post it too.

Do you know which file it was?  Which version of pkunzip were you using? 
Infozip handles long filenames better than pkunzip, so that might help you. 
(For anyone curious: pkunzip 2.50 will add numeric tails even when numeric
tails have been turned off in the Windows registry.)
