[open-cobol-list] WARNING - Win ports


From: Roger While
Subject: [open-cobol-list] WARNING - Win ports

WARNING -
There is a real possibility of buffer overflows on
Win ports (Cygwin, MingW) when either compiling
or running.
Results are unpredictable if this happens.
This is due to the fact that the system constant
define's for FILENAME_MAX and BUFSIZ are
very small on these environments (eg. <= 260).

I will replace these defines with our own.

I hope to have the fixes in CVS later today.

Roger
