32-bit glibc bug with SSIZE_MAX

I just tripped up on this glibc bug:

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13575

where glibc incorrectly defines SSIZE_MAX as a long even though ssize_t
is an int on a 32-bit platform.

I'm planning on tweaking gnulib's replacement <limits.h> to work around
it in the meantime.
