This looks like a reasonable fix to at least make things build correctly
again (and it does fix the issue).

FWIW, the corresponding Windows define is MAX_PATH, which usually is 260,
so setting it to 4096 here is probably more than enough if a hardcoded
value is needed.

Glad it works! Thank you for testing.

I don't have commit/merge powers so I leave that in the capable hands of
those that can.

I already pushed this one - I forgot to explicitly spell that out in the previous message.
