Synopsis: PD m4 (/usr/bin/m4) runs out of stack

State-Changed-From-To: open->closed

State-Changed-When: Sun Sep 9 19:51:37 PDT 2001
State-Changed-Why: 
As Gregory Neil Shapiro <gshapiro@gshapiro.net> reminded me, this was fixed
(after 4.3 was released) with this change:

revision 1.10.2.2
date: 2001/05/24 20:52:13;  author: gshapiro;  state: Exp;  lines: +9 -9
MFC: String operations could silently truncate long strings, leaving the output
     corrupted.  Mark's patch fixes this be removing the MAXTOK limitation on
     substring operations and allowing the putback buffer size to be the
     limiting factor.  If the putback buffer size if reached, m4 gives an
     error instead of silently truncating the string.

     Revision  Changes    Path
     1.12      +9 -9      src/usr.bin/m4/eval.c
