45 dnl Also provide HOST_NAME_MAX when <limits.h> lacks it.
46 dnl - On most Unix systems, use MAXHOSTNAMELEN from <sys/param.h> instead.
47 dnl - On Solaris, Cygwin, BeOS, use MAXHOSTNAMELEN from <netdb.h> instead.
48 dnl - On mingw, use 256, because
49 dnl <http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms738527.aspx> says:
50 dnl "if a buffer of 256 bytes is passed in the name parameter and
51 dnl the namelen parameter is set to 256, the buffer size will always
52 dnl be adequate."
53 dnl With this, there is no need to use sysconf (_SC_HOST_NAME_MAX), which
54 dnl is not a compile-time constant.
55 dnl We cannot override <limits.h> using the usual technique, because
56 dnl gl_CHECK_NEXT_HEADERS does not work for <limits.h>. Therefore retrieve
57 dnl the value of HOST_NAME_MAX at configure time.
