generally, you should use Bugzilla (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/) to
report such problems. In this particular case, I'll take care of
fixing it right now, so there's no need to open a bug report for it.

well, actually this is just an initialization and MAXPATHLEN is a
rather bad choice anyway. I'll just change it to some sane fixed
value instead.
