  * A directory entry has a struct dirent at the front of it, containing its
  * inode number, the length of the entry, and the length of the name
  * contained in the entry.  These are followed by the name padded to a 4
  * byte boundary with null bytes.  All names are guaranteed null terminated.
- * The maximum length of a name in a directory is MAXNAMLEN.
+ * The maximum length of a name in a directory is MAXNAMLEN when 32-bit
