Interesting.

Contributing to that inherent craziness, even The Dungeon in a general sense doesn't need to be in the same "normal" reality, but perhaps in other different "under-earth" and partly "oniric" domain ruled by different -but estrangely familiar- laws. After all, The Dungeon isn't but a different name for The Mouth of Hell. Some of this is, I think, suited for all Dungeon Fantasy motifs.

I posted in other thread a sketchy part of my Dark Fantasy/Dungeon Fantasy setting in development.

Earthdawn, I think, is one of the best official "Dungeon Fantasyesque" settings there is. I'm sure GURPS could do it with very little work.
