Can't Jeremy's dilemma be fixed by doing a separate, outright delete
on the original filename once the truncation routine completes? Ugly,
yes, but it would work, and could be positioned as an option labeled
as a "workaround for certain buggy software" or something. It wouldn't
be the first such in the Myth code, either.
