OK by me. (I was thinking the guideline limit is more than 68.)
But that text suggests that a new file is always used. Using "any hard link" or
"a hard link" is a bit better, suggesting that the new file thing is conditional
on there being a hard link.
Maybe this (66 chars)?
Non-nil means write new file if `buffer-file-name' is hard-linked.
