test suite failures due excessively long command lines
------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: STDCXX-543
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STDCXX-543
             Project: C++ Standard Library
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Utilities
    Affects Versions: trunk
         Environment: Windows 2000
            Reporter: Martin Sebor
            Priority: Critical


The test infrastructure (the exec utility to be exact) fails on platforms such 
as Windows 2000 that impose a low limit on the length of the command line. See 
the following post:
http://www.nabble.com/RE%3A-Windows-build-failures-p12508639.html

As Farid says in his post, to prevent such failures, excessively long command 
lines need to be written to a temporary file by the infrastructure and 
subsequently read from it by the exec utility.
