Seems to me that this is merely a short term fix until the next time
Emacs needs more heap. Is it impossible/impractical to find a mechanism
to determine how big this requirement should be at build time so the
problem can be solved forever? I'll plead guilty right up front to not
having a clue on what the optimal long term answer might be.
And thanks for your help. Much appreciated.
