Please do not use MAXPATHLEN, it is a arbitrary limit, and is not
defined on GNU.  Currently this makes building gcc-4.0 fail on GNU since 
fortran/module.c assumes that MAXPATHLEN is defined.  Please do not use these 
kind of limits in GNU programs.


Not having MAXPATHLEN is perfectly compliant with POSIX, same goes for
MAXHOSTNAMELEN, PATH_MAX etc.
