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.
