Well, AUX (as well as CON and PRN) are 'historic' device names in DOS, so I'd expect that for some reason or other, the unpacking code's failing for some reason involved with that - maybe it's something like trying to see if 'aux' exists, whereas it should be checking for something like './aux', but I'm just guessing, as I've not done any Win16/Win32 coding for many years.
