Well, there are filename length problems; does Mac OS X with HFS+ have the
31-char limit?

I would test it, but apparently Mac OS X won't boot for me because I have
corrupted fonts on Mac OS 9.  YES, I AM UPSET ABOUT IT.  Ahem.  Regardless,
is there any reason I should choose HFS+ over UFS, or vice versa?  Is there
a document somewhere that discusses this?
