While none of the built-in data types have any arbitrary size limits
(apart from memory size), there are still a few arbitrary limits: a
-given identifier may not be longer than 255 characters, and no
+given variable name may not be longer than 255 characters, and no
component of your PATH may be longer than 255 if you use B<-S>. A regular
expression may not compile to more than 32767 bytes internally.
