Tell this to the kernel people. It's <linux/limits.h> which defines the value.
It's wrong that 999 signals no limit, this is what -1 does. Or even better, no
definition of the macro at all. This macro is used in the solaris emulation
sysconf implementation and it returns the wrong value, too. There is nothing
the userlevel code should do.
