Indeed. The problem is that after the 2011-08-05 commit, m4/chdir-long.m4 and lib/chdir-long are no longer in sync: The .m4 file assumes that only <unistd.h> and <limits.h> will be included before (defined PATH_MAX || defined MAXPATHLEN) is tested, whereas the .h file includes <unistd.h>, <limits.h>, <sys/param.h> before doing this test. > It should be providing > chdir_long() unconditionally, but when there is no arbitrary file name > limit, it should be a simple stub around chdir(). That would be a possible fix of the problem, yes. Bruno
