--- Comment #3 from Zbigniew Jedrzejewski-Szmek <zbyszek at in.waw.pl> ---
strv is an array of strings, so if we got anywhere close to MAX_UNSIGNED
elements we'd be in deep shit anyway. Various algorithms on strv are linear, so
using those structures for more than a couple hundred elements would be painful
anyway.
If you care to provide a patch, then please do so (on the mailing list), but
imo current implementation is sufficient.
