apropos httpd..

What's the deal with MAXPATHLEN?

If i try to avoid pulling in linux/autoconf.h (which defines
CONFIG_SYSCTL) from busybox.h, i end with MAXPATHLEN undefined in a few
applets (httpd is umong them).
Current svn, which includes sys/param.h unconditionally, fails on a
fresh checkout in applets.[ch] because autoconf.h defines CONFIG_SYSCTL.
To reproduce, try:
svn co busybox;make defconfig;make

I thought about doing this in busybox.h to procrastinate cleaning up the
config-namespace mess a bit:
@@ -113,7 +113,9 @@ extern const struct BB_applet applets[];
 #include <limits.h>

 /* for PATH_MAX on systems that don't have it in limits.h */
+#ifndef PATH_MAX
 #include <sys/param.h>
+#endif
 #ifndef PATH_MAX
 #define  PATH_MAX         256
 #endif

and use pathconf("/",PATH_MAX); to set MAXPATHLEN. But i'm not sure if
this is a good idea.

What do you think?
thank you,
Bernhard
