Hi folks,

Occasionally, Rock Ridge extensions will work when Joliet won't.  It has
nothing to do with interactions between the two -- it occurs when you
have a very large number of long file names that are similar.  For
whatever reason, Joliet will barf on such inputs and Rock Ridge is OK
with them.  I have been able to routinely trigger this failure by making
ISO images of my large-ish collection of emails stored by Evolution.
