And btw: you won't be able to check out such a path on Windows anyway.
While NTFS can handle *paths* that are longer than MAX_PATH (260
chars), each path *component* (part between backslashes of a path)
must not exceed the limit specified in lpMaximumComponentLength
returned by the GetVolumeInformation API, and that limit is usually
only 255 chars.
See here for those limitations:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa365247%28v=vs.85%29.aspx#maxpath
So I think this isn't really an issue, or it's only an issue if you
want to find one.
