Yeah, I found later the exceptional cases of atari and amiga as well
as hp900. MAXDSIZ and MAXSSIZ also vary between ports. The minimum
values of MAXDSIZ = 64MB and MAXSSIZ = 32MB suffice (actually,
DFLDSIZE = 16MB and DFLSSIZE = 512KB are enough) at least for GCC.
I guess that GCC is one of the heaviest application, but of course,
there should be common consensus between users.

That sounds great! I look forward to hearing good news from him!
