-/* POSIX specifies SYMLOOP_MAX as the "Maximum number of symbolic
-   links that can be reliably traversed in the resolution of a
-   pathname in the absence of a loop."  This makes it a minimum that
-   we should certainly accept.  But it leaves open the possibility
-   that more might sometimes work--just not "reliably".
-
-   For example, Linux implements a complex policy whereby there is a
-   small limit on the number of direct symlink traversals (a symlink
-   to a symlink to a symlink), but larger limit on the total number of
-   symlink traversals overall.  Hence the SYMLOOP_MAX number should be
-   the small one, but the limit library functions enforce on users
-   should be the larger one.
-
-   So, we use the larger of the reported SYMLOOP_MAX (if any) and our
-   own constant MIN_ELOOP_THRESHOLD, below.  This constant should be
-   large enough that it never rules out a file name and directory tree
-   that the underlying system (i.e. calls to 'open' et al) would
-   resolve successfully.  It should be small enough that actual loops
-   are detected without a huge number of iterations.  */
