The naming might be a little confusing, but they are designed to be used together in some cases. Certain software issues CA certificates with a value of 2^32-1 for the PathLength basic constraint to indicate unspecified instead of omitting the field altogether per http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2459.txt. This causes problems with PKIX validation in Java. The maxPathLengthAllowUnspecified flag overcomes these troubles by treating 2^32-1 as a special value equivalent to the field having been omitted. The maxPathLength attribute is for CA certificates that actually specify a meaningful PathLength constraint.
