The issue is that MAXPATHLEN is not defined on Hurd. For reference:
https://darnassus.sceen.net/~hurd-web/faq/foo_max/

It is interesting that you mention POSIX compliance, as I have seen
contradictory information about this. The above linked page states that
getcwd(NULL, 0) is part of POSIX 2008.

Best regards,
João
