Bug#550800: policykit-1: FTBFS on hurd-i386

[Samuel Thibault]

Package: policykit-1
Version: 0.94-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Hello,

policykit-1 currently FTBFS on hurd-i386 because of unconditional use of
PATH_MAX, which hurd-i386 doesn't define since it doesn't have such
arbitrary limitation.  The attached patch fixes it by just using
glibc's get_current_dir_name() extension when available.
