/* GNU has no arbitrary fixed limits on these things, so we don't
   define the macros.  Some things are unlimited.  Some are in fact
   limited but the limit is run-time dependent and fetched with
   `sysconf' or `pathconf'.

   POSIX.1 requires that we define NGROUPS_MAX (though none of the others
   is required).  GNU allows any number of supplementary groups,
   dynamically allocated.  So we pick a number which seems vaguely
   suitable, and `sysconf' will return a number at least as large.  */

/* The maximum number of symbolic links that are allowed in a single file
   name resolution.  When a further link is encountered, the call returns
   ELOOP.  This name is a GNU extension; POSIX.1 has no such limit, and BSD
   calls it MAXSYMLINKS in <sys/param.h>.  (We define the name under
   _BSD_SOURCE even without _GNU_SOURCE because our <sys/param.h> uses it
   to define MAXSYMLINKS.)  */
