PATCH: bin_ln - PATH_MAX

[Clint Adams <schizo@debian.org>]

That was my typo in 12827.  Thanks for the cleanup.

> * Move dyncat() and tricat() from glob.c to utils.c; they've not been

Why not a string.c for all of those?

> I'm certain we can replace all uses of PATH_MAX with one of VARARR(),

PATH_MAX removed from bin_ln
