+ links that can be reliably traversed in the resolution of a
+ pathname in the absence of a loop." This makes it a minimum that
+ we should certainly accept. But it leaves open the possibility
+ that more might sometimes work--just not "reliably".
+
+ For example, Linux implements a complex policy whereby there is a
+ small limit on the number of direct symlink traversals (a symlink
+ to a symlink to a symlink), but larger limit on the total number of
+ symlink traversals overall. Hence the SYMLOOP_MAX number should be
+ the small one, but the limit library functions enforce on users
+ should be the larger one.
+
+ So, we use the larger of the reported SYMLOOP_MAX (if any) and our
+ own constant MIN_ELOOP_THRESHOLD, below. This constant should be
+ large enough that it never rules out a file name and directory tree
+ that the underlying system (i.e. calls to 'open' et al) would
+ resolve successfully. It should be small enough that actual loops
+ are detected without a huge number of iterations. */
