As I recall, I requested the MAXPREFIX and MAXSUFFIX functions since there
appeared to be no other way of getting the functionality without explicitly
writing a loop (I don't believe MISMATCH existed at the time). Since MISMATCH
can be used to compute the prefix lengths and suffix lengths, I see no further
need for MAXPREFIX and MAXSUFFIX.
