We should fix the LINE_MAX problem in the example at the same time.
Changing LINE_MAX to LINE_MAX+1 on line 64697 would work, but
would still give the impression that it's okay to use static
arrays to hold lines.  (In general it isn't okay, because LINE_MAX
is "runtime increasable" - the macro value in <limits.h> might be
smaller than the true {LINE_MAX} limit.)

A simple fix would be to avoid the problem by changing

    char line[LINE_MAX];
    char *key, *data;

to

    char *line, *key, *data;

Also the struct element declared at lines 64692-5 is not used and should
be deleted.
