Arg list too big

We had similar problems on SGIs and Stellars. The culprit in our case was
too much in the environment (the makefiles for our object-oriented
development system generate lots of make variable), not to many filenames. I
don't know if the 10240 byte limit applies to the sum of the filenames and
the environment, or to them separately, but in these days of multi-megabyte
systems, it seems ludicrous for it to be that small.
