--- Comment #10 from Scott Long <scottl at FreeBSD.org> ---
VM_MAX_NAMELEN can be increased to 63 right now.  Any larger and it exceeds the
length allowed by the devfs (i.e. /dev) filesystem via the SPECNAMELEN limit. 
Truncating names in those nodes will be problematic, and increasing the limit
will require a significant amount of code review and testing.  Would 63 be good
enough for now?
