> But it was rejected because its change might break the existing app. It might break existing applications if it returns "FE" instead of "FF", but never-used filename surprises users. (IMO, the existing apps probably crash if "FF" returned, i.e, 1/256 of the time.) Should it return the *next* reasonable log filename instead of "FF"? For example, 000000020000002000000000 for the above case.
