This has been a known bug for ages.  If you really want to test it
out, try running mkisofs on a large image and then try to do
something; I first encountered this back in FreeBSD 2.0 days. ;-)

I also doubt that the fix is trivial or John Dyson / David Greenman
would have done something about it the first time I reported it back
in December of 1994 (folks like Matt Dillon having also since reported
on variations of it).
