Oh interesting - yes, I think upstream would be very open to your alternative patch here seeing as this is actually best practice, though maybe not as convenient, as pointed out here: https://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/faq/foo_max I suggest opening a discussion on this on the dillo-dev mailing list here: https://lists.mailman3.com/hyperkitty/list/[email protected]/ With your proposed patch.
