Subject: Changing MAXPATHLEN in glob.cc back to 16384

Hi,

Revision 1.7 of src/winsup/cygwin/glob.cc reduced maximum allowed path length from 16384 to 4096 characters. This is unfortunate because some paths used in my build system can reach 6k characters in length. Attached patch reinstates 16384 characters limit.
