#2908: Cactus: Fixed arg list too long error.

Reporter: Max Morris Status: open Milestone: Version: Type: bug Priority: major Component:

Comment (by Roland Haas):

Something like this however may kind of work, by checking for failure:

``` $(shell : $(OBJS)) ifeq ($(.SHELLSTATUS),0) OBJS-too-long := 0 else OBJS-too-long := 1 endif ```

which just tries to execute the `:` (true) command.
