Probably it would be worth trying to create "aux.h" under XP and see
what happens. Unfortunately I don't have a 'doze system handy at the

kernel32.dll's CreateFile() and other apis normally perform translation
which includes special handling for dos device names including AUX. You
can bypass this by prefixing the absolute file name with the string
"\\?\" and this will allow you to create a file named AUX. It also
allows you to reference file names with absolute paths greater than 255
characters.
