I'm not really sure what you're suggesting -- the previously discussed
solution to the `patch-log problem' only involved storing _some_ patch-logs
in .tar.gz bundles, in the same general location as the normal patch-logs.
The pathnames to the bundles would be roughly the same length, and indeed a
bit longer...
