In this case the buffer size comes from shared code.  Whatever size we choose 
for the static buffer, we can trigger the assert by setting LIBPATH and 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH to very long strings.  This is just the error message, so it 
might be OK to truncate it.  Otherwise we could need to allocate the buffer 
using malloc.
