>Description:

lang/inform can't compile anything because it's trying to wedge a
search path that doesn't fit into a 128-byte string.

% inform -x house01.inf
Inform 6.31 for Unix (10th Feb 2006)
line 94: Fatal error: Couldn't open source file "/usr/pkg/share/inform/6.31/modParser.h"
%

The path /usr/pkg/share/inform/6.31/modules, which holds Parser.h, has
been truncated.

(house01.inf is from the inform distribution, but anything nontrivial
will exhibit the same behavior)

>How-To-Repeat:
as above.
>Fix:

Add this patch. It sets the path buffer size to 1024 for the UNIX,
UNIX64, and OSX configurations. (This is already set for the LINUX
configuration, which is doubtless how it was able to end up broken on
NetBSD. Don't ask me why there's a special configuration for Linux.)
