What about using PATH_MAX which is part of the POSIX standard?

I think the point was about arbitray limit; and as far as I can tell
GNU does not claim to be POSIX, does it? ;-)

Like most POSIX limits PATH_MAX may not be defined if the actual limit is not  
fixed.

Correct, and GNU doesn't have such a limit for the length of filenames, the
number of arguments passed to a program or the length of a hostname.  And
probobly a whole bunch of other things that have slipped my mind right now.
All of this is perfectly compliant with POSIX.
