You're all assuming that *BSD and Hurd are POSIX compliant. Hurd doesn't appear to be – it omits certain POSIX constants in its headers for a start. (The one that bit me was PATH_MAX.)

POSIX doesn't specify that there has to be a PATH_MAX macro. You may have to use pathconf() or fpathconf() instead.
