Follow-up Comment #1:

Another alloca() issue.  Really, it would be much nicer if we didn't need
this alloc at all; we need it because not all functions in make that deal with
strings accept a length or end pointer argument.

Changed expand_argument() to use malloc() if the size is >1000 bytes.  Now
the test run works fine on my 32bit Ubuntu 8.04, whereas before it dumped
core.
