Nice :)

Some archs override this value to 256, but git blame shows this is 
(very) old. I agree that 512 as default seems low.

Agreed, maybe we could still have the default value and checks the 
terminating null character is somewhere and bugs if not, I'll take a look.

I will propose a patchset that increases the default value and cleans 
archs up accordingly too.

Thanks again,
