[Esd-l] Detecting env size limits

[Floyd Pierce]

Only thing I can find on AIX is /usr/include/sys/limits.h:
*********************************************************
/*
  * Max length of arguments for exec() in bytes, including environ data, >= 
4096.
  */
#define ARG_MAX         24576
*********************************************************
