We have up to 16k on most ssh-aware OSes (32k on most of the Linux), so today 
we're still a light-year away from that. The extra 40 chars ("export 
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=LD_LIBRARY_PATH") will certainly take us closer to the limit, 
but not by a significant amount.

Moreover, the solution I proposed will work in any cases, without having to 
have prior knowledge about the peer (aka ping the remote host with a uname 
command).
