Actually, I had some time to do some testing, and I found that it's
not that pkunzip is attempting to set the archive attribute.  When run
with the debug messages turned on, pkunzip tries to create the
directory with an attribute of 0x10 (i.e. a regular file) rather than
0x20 (a directory).


No, first of all creating a directory does not involve any attributes,
and secondly
0x10=directory, and 0x20=archive.

Ok, this explains a problem I found with the Dunfield installer
being unable to install under DOSEMU. In order to work around,
I booted a computer which actually does run MSDOS, and ran there,
then zipped up the resulting directories, put the ZIP file
on a floppy, and used unzip with Linux to do the transfer.

How soon will this be folded into the standard release?
