CHILD_MAX question

on glibc 2.8

$ LC_ALL=C getconf CHILD_MAX
undefined

$ LC_ALL=C getconf _POSIX_CHILD_MAX
undefined

on glibc 2.7
# LC_ALL=C getconf CHILD_MAX
999

# LC_ALL=C getconf _POSIX_CHILD_MAX
999

Should getconf on 2.8 show some real value or should rather apps be fixed to 
deal correctly with undefined value?
