Can you publish the list of files where this issue arises? Are the
files you mentioned in this mail the only ones?

There shouldn't be any. But to see that, you need to prepare a GDB
tarball, then untar it using djunpack.bat as explained in
gdb/config/djgpp/README, and _then_ run doschk on the resulting tree.
That's because the file-name conflicts are supposed to be solved by
remapping in gdb/config/djgpp/fnchange.lst, which djunpack.bat uses.
