  | Oops, my earliest unix experience was on a BSD4.3 variant, so I was
  | spoiled by ffs and didn't realise the (in this context) helpful v7fs
  | behaviour with overlong filename components.

To clarify ... I meant7th edition (and earlier) filesystems, not
necessarily the thing we have called v7fs about which I know
nothing ... thiugh I wondered when I saw your PR whether a name
length problem might be what caused that.
