Disagreed :-). There should be no reason to have such a long line in
the RESULTS file; I would rather the Perl filter be a bit more
sensible about what it does. If you read the code, it's not as simple
as just allocating a buffer in eom(); there may be other places that
assume each line in RESULTS will fit in a SMALLBUF-sized buffer.
(The entire RESULTS file can be longer than SMALLBUF; this limit
applies only to each line in the file.)
Regards,
David.
