Not all System V systems have a 14-character limit on file names; that's
a characteristic of the V7 file system upon which the file system AT&T
distributes as the only on-disk file system with System V releases prior
to S5R4, but it's not the only on-disk file system AT&T distributes with
S5R4 (they also distribute the BSD file system, which has a
255-character limit), nor is it the only on-disk file system that comes
with S5 from all other vendors.
