Hi Nala

Ik actually use the underlying method in C at a number of other places. And
I am uncertain that other posixen might use other numbers. So I considered
exporting it directly.

In any case, the sysconf won't work on a handful of unfortunate operating
systems.

But you are right. The less in C, the better.
