Reminds me of the maximum PATH length issue still present in most versions of Windows (I think Windows 10 Anniversary resolves it). It was particularly painful because when you'd hit it (by, say, installing Sybase drivers or some other awful application that insisted on putting nearly every subdirectory it had in PATH), nothing would tell you that it was specifically the PATH being truncated that was at fault, you'd just get a large number of applications that would stop working and return obscure error messages.
