These are in direct conflict to the first recommendation of the GNU
Coding Standards:
4.1 Writing Robust Programs
Avoid arbitrary limits on the length or number of any data
structure, including file names, lines, files, and symbols, by
allocating all data structures dynamically. In most Unix
utilities, "long lines are silently truncated". This is not
acceptable in a GNU utility.
