We found the problem with the 'Supplied buffer too small error'.  It
turns out this is Athe compiler's way of saying the source line is too
long.  One wonders why they don't trap this and simply say source line
too long?  Or better, why there needs to be a limit at all?  (Other than
the DM limit of 256 - which would seem to be the natural limit to use).
