The long-filename bug affects me quite often. Though the work around, to
just reduce the length of the plaintext filename, usually works ok -
albeit annoying.

However, I just experienced a case where a long ecryptfs file was copied
from one Ext4 device (from within an encrypted Ubuntu 09.10 Private
directory) to another Ext4 device (within a TrueCrypt partition), but
could not be copied again to a third Ext4 device (within a large
encrypted Ubuntu 10.04 home directory). How did the file get written in
the first place?

I've deleted the encrypted file, do not know the original plain text
file name, and could not share details of the file anyway. :(
