It's in the Joliet spec:
Joliet compliant media shall comply with the remainder of ISO 9660 section
6.8.2.1, so that for each file recorded, the sum of the following shall not
exceed 240:
the length of the file identifier;
the length of the directory identifiers of all relevant directories;
the number of relevant directories.
The above lengths shall be expressed as a number of bytes.

mkisofs has never checked this - and I haven't been aware of anyone having
problems when the whole path exceeds this limit ...
