I started with UFS_LINK_MAX 65530 but later changed it to 65500 but failed to update my commit message. The actual value in my commit is the one that you and Peter Holm tested, 65500. Note that I did not cc:dev-commits-src-main@freebsd.org as my mckusick.com address is not authorized to submit to it. Feel free to forward my reply to them if you feel it useful. ~Kirk === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com
