A test is creating symlink with a path containing name 1023 characters long. Such file name is invalid for most filesystems (the limit on file name lenght is mostly 255 characters) and UDF actually complains about this and so the test fails. Since the point of this test is to verify storage of the symlink, change the test to use a valid path where each component name has only 254 characters.
