Large numbers of iovecs would mean putting a lot of kernel changes in
as we just shove a kernel space mapped image of the iovec list on the
stack. I've not got any applications that have moaned at eight so I feel
reasonably happy with this at the moment.

I've a feeling thats the proper symbol name in the posix draft too. I'll
have a read. MAX_IOVEC is meant to be a kernel internals define.
