I'm in the airline game. 379 columns is the widest table that I can find in
our production DB2 sub-systems - a highly denormalised table as I'm sure you
can imagine. Perhaps someone like FedEx or UPS may have requirements to go
real wide for their warehousing apps.
Nothing I can find in this big shop goes anywhere near the proposed limits.

I used google to dig up the column count limits on some
common database engines:
DB2 255
Oracle 1000
SQL Server 1024
PostgreSQL 1600
MySQL 3398
Informix 32767
