By gradually increasing the number of characters, the value returned stops at 511.
So it seems that TEXTOUT_P is limited to 512 pixels.
Can anyone confirm this?

TEXTOUT_P is indeed currently limited to a width of at most 511 pixels (and assumes 511 as the default width). This is subject to change, however.

(At one point, 511 was a natural limit due to the design at that point in time.)
