The problem is, I am trying to work around the issue of the command-line being 
too long (i.e. exceeding the maximum number of command-line arguments of the 
shell). Therefore cat'ing a file and expanding the file into arguments is *not* 
a solution.

In case anyone cares, this is for compiling the output of a Verilog simulator 
that converts Verilog into C, resulting in 1000+ object files.
