I am sorry for beeing imprecise. The standard says that it is implementation defined and goes on to recommend that it should be at least 17. ( As an aside that suggests that you could have a strictly conforming implementation where the max limit is 0, but that discussion is more fitting on comp.std.c++) -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27052
