It creates a file name of the same length as the original, using
letters from nameset. E.g.:
foobar.txt
0000000000
The former name is valid in an 8.3 system, but the latter isn't, so the
rename will fail. However, it gets shortened quickly to 0000000 so it'll
work. A similar argument applies to case-insensitive file systems.
