I think the correct fix would be to ensure that "size_t" is defined. "size_t" is defined by <sys/types.h>, <unistd.h> and/or <stdio.h>, depending on platform, and all are included before any attempt is made to hack around MAXPATHLEN. So what's going on on Hurd? Is there a bug that "config.h" is not included first? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ October Webinars: Code for Performance Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance.
