AFAIK, OpenSim has native linking of objects >= 256 prims. You can take a look in the Hippo & Meerkat viewers as both support it.

I might be off on this, it was a while ago that i looked into it. I made a small change in the hippo viewer that will allow the end user to select a random number of objects to link, and they get linked into groups of 255 and squirted across in the protocol. So the way to use that to link more than 256 is to select a group of objects, and then do the link step *twice*. It's not pretty, but allows builders to link groups of objects without having to sit there and fuss with counting objects. It seemed to work on both OpenSim and the main SL grid.

The code may also be server side.. but if you create 444 objects and try to link them all on OpenSimulator using the Standard Linden Client downloaded from the website it presents a message box that says 'Unable to link these 444 objects. You can link a maximum of 256 objects'. This means that it is also client side because there is no server side code to restrict the number of objects you can link in OpenSimulator without a 3rd party addon module.
