Summary: Object filenames truncated

While recompiling some of my PD C-programs last weekend
I noticed that LC truncates object pathnames to _32_ characters.
Can you out there believe that?? 32 characters for volume label
and full pathname?? Of course, you probably won't notice
this if you use floppies or RAM: but I like to have my sources
grouped in subdirectories of jh0:lc/sources.

I know this bug can be avoided by using Assign and -o option
but it's still a HUGE bug in a machine that allows 30 chars
for a simple filename.
