Command line limit for Make

["Nogradi, Chris" <cnogradi at movaz dot com>]

Hello,

I am having the following problem when running long command lines (4560
characters) from inside of make (using cmd.exe to run make in dos mode):

The following character string is too long:

This is using cygwin release 1.3.2:

    Cygwin DLL version info:

The previous version of cygwin that I was using does not have this
problem:

 Cygwin DLL version info:
     dll major: 1001
     dll minor: 8
     dll epoch: 19
     dll bad signal mask: 19005
     dll old termios: 5
     dll malloc env: 28
     api major: 0
     api minor: 34
     shared data: 3
     dll identifier: cygwin1
     mount registry: 2
     cygnus registry name: Cygnus Solutions
     cygwin registry name: Cygwin
     program options name: Program Options
     cygwin mount registry name: mounts v2
     cygdrive flags: cygdrive flags
     cygdrive prefix: cygdrive prefix
     cygdrive default prefix:
     build date: Wed Jan 31 10:08:38 EST 2001
     shared id: cygwin1S3

Is there a command line limit?

Thanks,

Chris
