Re: no decision has been made on APR_PATH_MAX for your platform

OK, got it working. hmm. this is the hack of all hacks, but I gave
up figuring out what *actually* is going wrong and added this
temporarily to apr.h (around line 400) :

/* kumar's dangerous hack */
#if !defined(PATH_MAX)
#define PATH_MAX 4096
#endif

I got 4096 from my system's limts.h ...

$ less /usr/include/linux/limits.h
#ifndef _LINUX_LIMITS_H
#define _LINUX_LIMITS_H

#define NR_OPEN 1024

#define NGROUPS_MAX 32 /* supplemental group IDs are available */
#define ARG_MAX 131072 /* # bytes of args + environ for exec() */
#define CHILD_MAX 999 /* no limit :-) */
#define OPEN_MAX 256 /* # open files a process may have */
#define LINK_MAX 127 /* # links a file may have */
#define MAX_CANON 255 /* size of the canonical input queue */
#define MAX_INPUT 255 /* size of the type-ahead buffer */
#define NAME_MAX 255 /* # chars in a file name */
#define PATH_MAX 4096 /* # chars in a path name */
#define PIPE_BUF 4096 /* # bytes in atomic write to a pipe */

#define RTSIG_MAX 32

#endif

should I report this as a bug?? I hesitate since this must be
White-Box-linux-specific; seems too obvious to have crept into a
release otherwise.

Well, thought I would post it since there were a few of us seeing the
error. I also had to fiddle with some other stuff,
http://svn.haxx.se/users/archive-2005-10/0828.shtml , but after that
import svn worked and svnlook.py ran ok.
