The diffchrom plot script (in R) truncates the output file name (-o option) to 511 characters (probably 512 including the \0 string terminator in C).

This seems to be a bug in R 3.4.0 pdf() function. There is a foreign function call in there to C_PDF which receives the full name, but does not write any file, and not returns with an error. So this certainly is an R-bug.
