--- Comment #5 from Phil Sutter <phil at nwl.cc> ---
Meanwhile we support names of up to 255 characters, so the last example applies
cleanly.

The error message for duplicate chain name has improved significantly:

nft -f /tmp/test.nft
/tmp/test.nft:9:11-16: Error: Could not process rule: Device or resource busy
    chain prer_r {
          ^^^^^^

While it is basically still EBUSY, location info is correct at least. Maybe it
should be changed to EEXISTS?
