With one particular compilation, I'm getting this error.  From reading around, 
I'm pretty sure that it's due to an excessively long command string, as 
there's a lot of include paths being added to the gcc command with the -I 
option.  However, I had fixed this problem previously on an older computer 
somehow, but I've lost the website where I found the solution.  It was 
something to do with a flag that is set when compiling gcc so that it would 
ignore the error, I think.  It's not due to my computer being low on memory or 
resources or anything like that.  I can't modify the makefile as this is another 
department's program and I know it was fixable by changing the tools 
somehow.  If anyone could point me to any suggestion along these lines I'd 
appreciate it.

Jonathan
