We just learned a few posts back that it might be specific to Linux; I ran it
on Windows.
Depending on the exact win32 api used there is a 257 limit on windows.
The 257 includes 2 for the device, C:, and 255 for the path part that will use
1 for the leading \. Getting an error for a name that is 255 is not surprising.
Other api allow for 65535 limit, not sure on its additional limits.
I seem to remember there is a setting to allow longer paths, but I
forget any details.
