Subject: Too many links

In doing some btrfs testing (on 2.6.32-22-generic and 2.6.35-24-generic)
I seem to have come across a limitation in how many links I can have in
a single directory. I hit the EMLINK trying to create the 72nd link
(with rsync, replicating from a source directory fwiw). The source
directory of the rsync has 2400 links that need to be replicated on btrfs.
The most recent info I can find is a thread from mid-2010:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-btrfs/msg05619.html
I guess this is still a limitation? Is the future of a fix still as
unclear as it was back in July 2010?
Thanx,
b.
