Hi, libedit 3.1 does not compile on Hurd [1]. The problem is due to an unconditional usage of the POSIX-optional PATH_MAX; unfortunately it is used in a static buffer, so hard to make it go away cleanly. The easiest solution I am providing is defining PATH_MAX if not defined already; another one could be allocate just once the buffer needed, at the cost of "leaking" such buffer even if until the end of the run. Since I read you are going to upload it soon to unstable, then the easiest solution will do it for now.
