Can we use a #elif __CYGWIN__ here to fix the re-definition just for cygwi ?

Yes. I only compile on 32/64-bit linux and 64-bit cygwin these days, so I only noticed the warnings (yes I wrote error, but it should be warning) on cygwin. Other systems may suffer the same warnings, of course.

As I said in the cover letter, that is an option - but why bother with UNIX_PATH_MAX at all?

ATB,

Will remove UNIX_PATH_MAX in favor of sizeof().

Thanks.
