MAXHOSTNAMELEN, defined by POSIX, is 64 bytes. You can't just
change it to 255. If you did, all servers in the universe, all
everything would have to be shutdown, recompiled, and rebooted
simultaneously. You can't have a name-server returning a 255-byte
string when a mail-server can only handle 64 bytes.
