   Please send this patch to the gcc-patches mailing list for review, if it
still
   applies

MAXPATHLEN is still used in fixincludes.  Seeing that this patch is
over 10 years, I am not sure it even applies and thus a good idea to
forward it to gcc-patches for review.  The fix is simple enough in
fixincludes (simply use xmalloc).
