New submission from Jason Gross <jasongro...@gmail.com>:

On attempting to open files with sufficiently long file names, python throws 
IOError: [Errno 27] File too large.  This is misleading, and perhaps should be 
relabeled as 'File name too long.'

I have only tested this on unix with Python 2.5.2.  This error was thrown when 
I opened 
/afs/athena.mit.edu/user/j/g/jgross/web_scripts/alphabets/results/turk/armenian_01_A3NOO9K3CY1YU5.cstroke
 for writing.
