igawk problem

[Hans Horn]

 Group,

I have a rather lengthy awk script (that internally includes a bunch of awk 
library functions; therefore I'm using igawk).

When I invoke it, e.g. like

echo | igawk -f script.awk
eval: gawk: argument list too long

The script and the awk library functions together make up approx. 34kByte.

Does anybody have a clue whether I'm running here into a hard shell limit, 
or some internal limit of gawk?

thx,
H.
