Re: [patch] Fix handling of overlength pathname in AF_UNIX sun_path

POSIX doesn't exist in a vacuum, we need to harmonize reality with the
standard. If an implementation exists where sun_path has no
null-terminator then it is useful to have POSIX clarify that
null-termination is implementation defined behaviour, just like it
says that sun_path's length undefined. Under "Application Usage" or
"Examples" it's valid to talk about specific implementations.

See: http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007904975/basedefs/sys/un.h.html,
where it talks about BSD in the "Application Usage." It's about time
we some "Linux this" and "Linux that" in there.

Ok, thanks for explaining.
