with regards to debian bug #573902: it looks like the origin of the limit for the length of the unix-domain socket filename is not actually in socat.
I traced it back to /usr/include/sys/un.h, which says:
> /* Structure describing the address of an AF_LOCAL (aka AF_UNIX) socket. */
> struct sockaddr_un
> {
> __SOCKADDR_COMMON (sun_);
> char sun_path[108]; /* Path name. */
> };
so maybe it's a kernel limitation? or a libc6 limitation? ugh.
