--- Comment #20 from John Soo ---
I think that in order to really rid gcc of the E2BIG problem on linux,
COLLECT_*_OPTIONS will have to be deprecated and removed. This is particularly
a problem when executing spec files, it seems.
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=86030
--- Comment #19 from John Soo ---
I verified the proposed patch sent argv through @file, but COLLECT_GCC_OPTIONS
still caused E2BIG. In the failing execve, COLLECT_GCC_OPTIONS was 134227
characters long.

--- Comment #18 from John Soo ---
And actually the proposed patch is not conservative enough, because the size of
the strings in argv/env also matter.

--- Comment #16 from John Soo ---
It is actually somewhat likely that ARG_MAX will be hit when running on linux
because it is hit when the stack can't contain enough pointers to contain argv
and environ (see exec.c in the kernel

Just for some context on what limit is hit: under man sysconf you will find a
description of ARG_MAX
(https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/sysconf.3.html)
> ARG_MAX - _SC_ARG_MAX
> The maximum length

I think the general problem in that issue is that ARG_MAX is not respected when
the driver (or any subprocess) execs things on linux. I think that it is not
the same as the original issue here, though.

I'm also not sure
https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=commitdiff;h=180ebb8a24d24fc5b105f2257d6216f6dfde62df
fixes the collect bug because collect uses collect_execute instead of the pex_*
exec functions.

Ok that may be true but I am effected by this on linux as are quite a few
others in this issue

Hmm according to 45749 with `HAVE_GNU_LD` on it should work for the ld call. I
will give that a try.
But the environment variable one is still an issue as far as I can tell.
