Is it safe to bump MAXLOGNAME in sys/param.h and expect to have 16 character usernames? We already have a good number of customers with usernames with lengths between 8 and 16 and need our new FreeBSD machines to understand these usernames. As -current runs with MAXLOGNAME==17, I don't see a problem with doing this on a -stable machine. Is there anywhere else I might need to change this, or any pitfalls I am missing?
