> XCOPY is a long file name aware Dos application

Yes, but only from within Windows.  From the MS Knowledge Base:

If the "Prevent MS-DOS-based programs from detecting Windows" option is
enabled
for the MS-DOS prompt, the XCOPY command does not copy files with long
filenames.

Also, long filename support is not enabled in MS-DOS mode, Safe mode, or
Command
Prompt Only mode. Note that no MS-DOS command will move a file with a long
filename in MS-DOS mode.

Do not manipulate long filenames outside of Windows 95. When you boot to a
command prompt, support for long filenames is not enabled
