RE: is this a bug?

[Mark Galeck (CW)]

Well, I found what was causing this.  I attempted to call the 
$(wildcard ...
function, with about 50,000 arguments (full path names, on average 100 
characters, so the total size of all strings that were passed to wildcard, is 
about 5MB).  Is this a bad idea?  :)

'make' caught a stack overflow. 
It would be helpful to know what the makefile contains, and what
  make --version
says.
