There's good news on the SQLite side:

http://www.mail-archive.com/sqlite-users@sqlite.org/msg78853.html says:

| The latest check-in on trunk adds a new windows VFS module called
| "win32-longpath" which accepts the full-length 32KB pathnames.  Add the
| string "win32-longpath" as the 4th argument to sqlite3_open_v2() (on
| windows only, of course) and everything should just work after that.

The source change is at http://www.sqlite.org/cgi/src/info/12d0a8859d

It seems this new VFS supports long path names if they start with the \\?\ prefix.

So as soon as the next SQLite version is released, we can include support for it
into SVN, maybe with a compile-time check on what SQLite version is available.
