Andreas,

Thanks for the reference and for your review.

Roland,

Given the wording in POSIX it seems like SYMLOOP_MAX should
stay undefined?

The value of SYMLOOP_MAX isn't really well defined on Linux, 
and it is equal to or greater than the minimum required by 
POSIX.

Comments?

Cheers,
Carlos.
