Follow-up Comment #42, bug #51632 (project octave):

Also on a more general note: I don't think that we should rely on the short
file names to fix bugs at all. Support for short file names is optional for
NTFS. Indeed, I had to attach an external NTFS volume for testing because the
file systems on my internal volumes don't seem to store short file names. 
Windows 10 came pre-installed. Maybe this is a new default - or some oddity of
the manufacturer (ASUS).
