*Ouch*. Really? It's hard to believe that anyone would consider it
remotely usable for more than toy-sized projects, if you have to list
all the typedef names on the command line.
Looks like BSD does the same. It's just that we hide it in pgindent:
Oh wow, I never noticed that. That's going to be a severe problem for
the "run it anywhere" goal. The typedefs list is already close to 32K,
and is not going anywhere but up. There are already platforms on which
a shell command line that long will fail, and I think once we break past
32K we might find it failing on even pretty popular ones.
Well, my solution would be to replace pgindent with a perl script (among
other advantages, it would then run everywhere we build, including
Windows), and filter the typedefs list so that we only use the ones
that appear in each file with that file, instead of passing the whole
list to each file.
