Hi Paul,

POSIX named files cannot exceed 16 characters when they appear
directly under root, under and account or under an MPE group.
In all other locations, POSIX filenames can be up to 255 bytes.

I recall seeing this misleading NS error message before, but
I thought it was fixed.  Also, you may get better diagnostic
info by executing the ERRDUMP CI command immediately after the
BUILD fails.
