Long filenames don't seem to work re: cp/touch (GNU fileutils) 3.16

The documentation states that the GNU FileUtils package handles long
filenames. However, when I execute the following in a DOS box:
 
        cp a.txt "This is a long filename"
 
The result is a file named "This is". I have also tried this with
touch.exe and it too fails.
 
Can you help?


Thanks,

BTW -- I have tried this on WinNT (SP6) and Win98 (Second edition).
