Re: [ros-bugs] [Bug 708] Selfhosting (ros-on-ros compilation) fails.

Hey, do you know when this started happening or has rbuild always had 
lines that are too long for ROS cmd? Should we just change 
CMDLINE_LENGTH to something else, because apparently CMDLINE_LENGTH is 
not really the max a line can be as rbuild works with MS cmd.

Our makefile contains lines like this:

${gcc} -xc -E -DRC_INVOKED ${ntoskrnl_RCFLAGS} ntoskrnl\ntoskrnl.rc >
$(TEMPORARY)ntoskrnl.ntoskrnl.rci.tmp

This line is between 500 and 600 characters long. Make creates for each
line which contains redirections a batch file.

Before dymatic alloc are in place we can change CMDLINE_LENGTH to 2048 instead
for 512 that will keep rbuild happy, until dymatic alloc are in place for ros
cmd command line.
