There was a comment in v1, but not in this v2, we should keep that
comment.

Agreed, but looks like echo (which is a bash builtin) is faster than
touch (which requires forking new process every loop).

Or

	prefix=`$PERL_PROG -e 'print "a"x256;'`

? Which seems a bit simpler to me.

The deadlock has been fixed, so I think it's fine to leave dangerous
group.
