lint pass2 error

When running a *big* program through lint I consistently get the error message:
/usr/lib/lint2: lint pass2 error: Too many names

The program in question is some 20,000 lines, spread out over ~100 files and
~500 functions. It obviously overflows some internal lint buffer.
Exactly what does the error message mean, and is there a way around it,
like some 'undocumented' lint option or whatever?

The system I get this on is an NCR Tower 32 running vanilla SVR2.
