I think it is better to make this KSYM_NAME_LEN. KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN looks 
like something different and KSYM_NAME_LEN is 128 which you reference 
below.

It would be really nice to change actual values for their macro 
definitions, but this would be a mess which is not worth it. Anyway 
shouldn't those width modifiers be %63 and %127 to make a room for \0?

Same here.

Otherwise it looks really good (which applies for the whole series), so 
after fixing these nits you can add my
