The 'releases' section of standards.texi says:

-----
   Try to make sure that all the file names will be unique on MS-DOG. 
A name on MS-DOG consists of up to 9 characters, optionally followed
by a period and up to three characters.
-----

This should, in fact, be _8_ characters, followed by a period and three
more.
