Apologies if this belongs on -questions.  I couldn't find what I needed in
the archives or handbook.


I have a system where I need/want to handle lots of files in a single
directory.  Lots as in 100-200K files.  ls | wc -l breaks because the
value of ARG_MAX in sys/syslimits.h is too small.  If I change it from
65536 to 4meg and rebuild the world it works fine.

I do cvsup from time to time and have to re-edit the file, which I usually
forget.  Is there a way to set this parameter in make.conf or the config
file so it's always done when compiling the kernel?


Thanks in advance,

--- David
