Sure, why not?  The only possible limitation is if the command line
exceeds 16K or so, in which case you can just stubedit the caller to a
larger transfer buffer.

A better option might be to group them into libraries, which will dodge
the long line problem.  And don't worry about all the .o files in the
library-- libc has a few hundred .o files inside it.
