24 PATH_MAX is not defined on systems which have no limit on filename length,
25 such as GNU/Hurd.
26
27 This file does *not* define PATH_MAX always. Programs that use this file
28 can handle the GNU/Hurd case in several ways:
29 - Either with a package-wide handling, or with a per-file handling,
30 - Either through a
31 #ifdef PATH_MAX
32 or through a fallback like
33 #ifndef PATH_MAX
34 # define PATH_MAX 8192
35 #endif
36 or through a fallback like
37 #ifndef PATH_MAX
38 # define PATH_MAX pathconf ("/", _PC_PATH_MAX)
