hi

there's an awfully lot of code like

	char foo[MAXPATHLEN];

in the kernel. either in functions (ie. allocated on stack during runtime)
or global variables. Most of the usage is without a good reason and only
wastes space.

should we do something about it? maybe an idea in projects/ideas webpage?

thnx

roman
