--- Comment #2 from Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella at linaro dot or=
g> ---
POSIX defines the values exported on limits.h, getconf is a glibc provided
program. And glibc does not provide proper getconf documentation, although
man-pages clearly states that the obtained values are done either through
sysconf or pathconf (which always returns the implementation values).

So I am not sure if getconf should follow what limits.h defines instead of =
what
implementation sets, changing will be a semantic change that might break so=
me
assumptions (which is always tricky).
