The test is using a 32 characters buffer to print the full path for each
file name, which in some setups it's not enough because $TEST_DIR can
point to a path name longer than that, or even smaller but then the buffer
is still not large enough after appending a file name. When that's the
case it results in a core dump like this:

We don't actually need to print the full path into the buffer, because we
have previously set the current directory (chdir) to the path pointed by
"dir_path". So fix this by printing only the relative path name which
uses at most 5 characters (NUM_FILES is 5000 plus the nul terminator).
