 I took a quick look, and i think it'll be more complicated.
 I also think that my solution is too simple minded, for the
 Berkeley codebase as such, at least because lex.c:newfileinfo()
 tries to abbreviate folders which have the same path prefix as the
 value of the *folder* option to "+BOX"; all this is thus
 inherently broken ... so to say.
 
 I'll continue tomorrow, but append a diff that fixes usage of an
 inner-scope buffer that is used outside the scope.
