Plus with only 14 character filenames to work with on some older UNIX
systems (an aside: RMS seemed to agree in e-mail to me on all .el
files being less than 14 to make room for .elc's) VM should probably use
(as a default if (eq system-type 'unix-usg-v)?)  #DDHHMMSSname#
(D=date,H=hour,M=minute,S=second, name=reply to persons' name)
truncated to 14 char, or something like that, I dunno.

Anyway, a while back, I started using random numbers for autosave
names in VM...
