Ok, I finally got to look into this. Sorry for the long delay.

While I appreciate you submitting the patch and the explanation, the
amount of complexity (and overhead) that is added to handle corner
cases/platforms is too much, IMO. So I've resolved this with a much
simpler fix (define fallback PATH_MAX of 4096):

I am, however, going to keep your patch for future references in case
this needs to be revised for some reason.

Thanks,
Boris
