This i= s a big change, not to mention ABI-breaking. It can't go to stable/* but the p= ort needs to work on stable/*, presumably. The supplied patch also isn't sufficient to fix up the fallout (particularl= y, libc glob allocates a bunch of MAXPATHLEN buffers on the stack, which becom= es much worse with a 4kB length). Here is a little more thorough treatment of the issue: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D12330 (it also bumps MAXNAMLEN from 255 to 102= 3 =E2=80=94 long enough to hold 255 arbitrary Unicode characters in UTF-8). --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
