Technically, yes, you can change the size at compilation.

Operationally, your app will die/fail which you try to exceed the Windows 
FD_Size value -- it is a OS level limit.

That fact that it is exposed as a constant is a matter of convenience, as it 
allows a developer to program knowing that a limit exist and has to be managed, 
without hard coding the limit.
