There is no 128 characters commandline limit. The max. length of
commandlines passed from one DJGPP v2.01 program to another DJGPP v2.01
program is 2048 AFAIR. Which versions of RHIDE, gcc and ld do you have?

Maybe you still have an old gcc or ld from v1.12 of DJGPP? To check
this, you can "type" the .exe-files and see if they say something like
"stub.h generated from stub.asm by djasm, on Sat Oct  5 20:49:01 1996" -
then it's a v2 program. If "type ld.exe" only prints some garbage, you
still have a v1 program.

Alternatively, generate a Bug Report (Alt-Space from within RHIDE) and
post it here.
