Hi,
If pathconf (name, _PC_PATH_MAX) returns a PATH_MAX value > 2 GB,
the readlink call in canonicalize-lgpl.c line 292 may return a length > 2 GB,
therefore the implicit cast (assignment) to 'int' will produce a wrong value.
If you agree with this patch, it'd be a good idea to propagate it into glibc
(it's the file stdlib/canonicalize.c there).
