The recent addition of namespaces, combined with those potential suse out-of-memory fields, means that we are close to the maximum number of fields poor ol' top can display. Imagine, the really old top was limited to 26 fields (28 with the suse hack) and this top had neared the version 'g' rcfile limits which were a healthy 55. This patch adds another 15 fields to the maximum while making it even easier to increase in the future. Also, top still silently accommodates older config files all the way back to the original pre-ng version top-3.2.8! Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

Please forward bug reports. If your bug database is public and
busy enough to bother with, please make this known. Follow
Debian's lead in making the bug database easy to comment on via
email without need for an account.
For normal packages, ensure that you do not add debugging flags
to the CFLAGS variable.
