Hi,

the Cactus integration tests (for which the results can be found in the 
portal https://portal.cactuscode.org) are also run every night on an IBM 
SP5 at LSU. There I have the problem that, for a configuration with very 
many thorns, the Cactus bindings library cannot be generated:

> gmake[2]: execvp: ar: The parameter or environment lists are too long.
> gmake[2]: *** [/scratch/tradke/Cactus/configs/Einstein/lib/libthorn_CactusBindings.a] Error 127

Didn't we once had a similar problems with command lines being too long 
? Was there a solution to that problem ?
