pathmax: Leave PATH_MAX undefined on the Hurd, and a constant otherwise. * lib/pathmax.h (PATH_MAX): Leave it undefined on GNU/Hurd. * lib/chdir-long.h: Include pathmax.h. * lib/clean-temp.c (PATH_MAX): Remove code that is done by pathmax.h. * lib/getcwd.c: Include pathmax.h instead of <limits.h>. (PATH_MAX): Remove code that is done by pathmax.h. * lib/canonicalize.c (PATH_MAX): Provide a fallback value. * lib/tmpfile.c: Add a comment. * m4/pathmax.m4 (gl_PATHMAX): Don't test for pathconf. * modules/chdir-long (Depends-on): Add pathmax. * modules/getcwd (Depends-on): Add pathmax. * tests/test-getcwd.c (test_abort_bug): Avoid syntax error when PATH_MAX is not defined. * doc/posix-headers/limits.texi: Mention the pathmax module. * NEWS: Mention the change.

can handle the GNU/Hurd case in several ways:
- Either with a package-wide handling, or with a per-file handling,
- Either through a
#ifdef PATH_MAX
or through a fallback like
#ifndef PATH_MAX
# define PATH_MAX 8192

or through a fallback like
#ifndef PATH_MAX
