Hardcoding buffer sizes like that is a great way to trigger a buffer overflow when assumptions are not respected. I would much rather we don't introduce this sort of code in libc++, to be honest. Is there a reason why zOS can't just provide `PATH_MAX`?
Or, even much better, why doesn't zOS satisfy `defined(_POSIX_VERSION) && _POSIX_VERSION >= 200112`? Then, we could use the safe and non-buggy version of `realpath`. The buffer-taking version is documented in various places, including `realpath`'s manpage itself, as being buggy.
