Are there any unusual characters in <long dir name>?  That's usually more
of a Windows issue, but I'm grasping at straws here :-)

So the actual command name for running Preview is "open"?  Have you tried
setting the SCIPY_PIL_IMAGE_VIEWER variable to that name?

You mean you can't use Preview's file-selection interface to select the
desired file?  The /private directory is not navigable?  Does it even
show up as a choice?

Is there something special about the /private directory?
