Actually the Hurd is continously having problems for funky features -
no pathname limit is a legal Posix option, but not one that Linux
supports, or any major Unix supports. The Hurd doesn't support Linux
interfaces; it supports Posix interfaces. Any new OS that has any plans
of being Unix-like should do the same.
