available to pure MSDOS programs, as mklst.exe must be? (In which case
I will have to find another solution.)

I believe that straight-DOS programs don't have mixed-case filename information.
A pure DOS hard-drive actually stores all filenames on the harddrive in upper
case, and MSDOS under Windows maintains upper-case-only for compatibility with
older DOS programs.
