Did you try to track down why?
Although it's inefficient to declare NAMEDATALEN as not a multiple of 4
(because of alignment considerations --- the space will just be wasted
as pad bytes, so you might as well use it), I don't offhand know why it
wouldn't work. I don't *think* there is any assumption that it's a
power of 2 ... but the well-tested cases are all powers of 2, so ...

To do that, we'd need to know what the constraint actually is. Do you
care enough to do the research to find out?

constraint is, if it turns out to be a localized fix. But not knowing
what's causing the failure, it's hard to guess.
