I had the same problems with my VFAT drive. I did change the filename 
creating routine in the following way:

char *ExchangeChars(char *s, bool ToFileSystem)
{
   char *p = s;
   while (*p) {
         if (!isalnum(*p))
           *p = '_';
         p++;
         }
   return s;
}

This works fine for me. That's why I like GPL software :-)
