The ANSI C standard requires the constants FILENAME_MAX and
FOPEN_MAX in STDIO.H and the constants EXIT_SUCCESS and EXIT_FAILURE
in STDLIB.H.
   The include files provided with Version 5.10 of the C compiler do not
have these constants. These constants should be defined as follows:

/* in stdio.h */

#define FILENAME_MAX 63
#define FOPEN_MAX    20

/* in stdlib.h */

#define EXIT_SUCCESS  0
#define EXIT_FAILURE  1
