PATH_MAX need not be defined (and on Hurd, it intentionally is not
defined); or might be so huge as to be useless.  But 2048 is smaller
than typical PATH_MAX of 4096, so you may still want to consider a
compromise.

And if you do that, then the escaping should be consistent for both
arguments.  Libvirt is okay with pre-escaping file names before passing
them to qemu.
