Do *not* install Dynamic C updates/patches from within you Linux OS.
File names in Linux are case sensitive, whereas in Windows they are not. In other words, in Linux you can have 2 different files "Foo.txt" and "foo.txt" coexist in the same directory. In Windows -- you can't. If you had "foo.txt" and copied "Foo.txt" into the same directory, it will overwrite "foo.txt".
That said, capitalization of some files in the updates may have changed (and most likely and if you install (copy) an update over your existing Dynamic C install from within Linux, you will end up with duplicate files and errors "Filenames must be unique regardless of path" when compiling.
One way to install an update is to unpack it into a temp directory, then launch the explorer from the Dynamic C bottle (Manage Bottles, select Dynamic C bottle, click Run Command, type in "explorer", click Run). With the explorer navigate to the temp dir with the update and copy (Ctrl+C) the update files. Then navigate to your Dynamic C install dir (usually C:/CDRABBIT_XXX) and paste them there.
Beum, you are all done.
Delete the temp dir and enjoy the updated Dynamic C. Yey!
