So, name length failures are minimized by mounting the 
subordinate store at a directory with a single character 
name?  Prefix being four characters, "./S/".

ET.Open ./S/tmp456789012345678901234567890 ~ works.  Therefore the Oberon  
limit of 32 or 31 characters isn't present.  You refer to the Linux liimit of 255 characters? 
In that case the name of the mount point isn't critical.

I guess one approach is to mimic the Oberon matching algorithm in C 
but others will have sharper ideas.

Thanks,                         ... Peter E.
