[wplug] mkisofs: same Rock Ridge name error

[Patrick Wagstrom]

This deals with the way that RockRidge translates filenames.  It's got
some pretty hideous limitations that make it generally not the most
useful for multiple directories especially if they have the same file
name, as you're seeing here.  Basically RockRidge creates a bunch of
short little file names with a translation table (the TRANS.TBL file you
may be familiar to seeing).

So how to get around this?  Well, I've never found an easy way with rock
ridge.   I usually resort to making CDs that use Joliet or a unix only
cd.
