fsck problems



I hope this problem in fsck() is reproducible...

I grabbed the SGI CD-ROM catalog from sgi.com and unpacked it onto a
Minix partition (1700 files or so...), when I then did an fsck I got
a million bad filenames. (BTW there are many names > 14 chars in this
archive).

I looked briefly at the source and it looks like when it prints out a
bad name it applies a length limit to the printf, but not to the badname
function... could this be the cause?
