** [tickets:#279] Use pathconf() instead of NAME_MAX**
**Status:** review

According to POSIX.1, neither PATH_MAX nor NAME_MAX have to be defined as
constants (see [Limits on File System
Capacity](http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Limits-for-Files.html)).
To be portable, a program should instead use pathconf() to determine the
maximum limits.
LSB defines PATH_MAX but not NAME_MAX (see [Data Definitions for
libc](http://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/LSB_4.1.0/LSB-Core-generic/LSB-Core-generic/libc-ddefs.html)).
Therefore, the minimum requirement is that at least the use of the NAME_MAX
constant is removed from the code.
