Most likely, you are encountering the maximum line length.
The default is 1000 characters in the source (I think it's
MAXLINELENGTH in command.c, don't have source handy).
Precompiled executables usually use the default.  It's easy
to change and recompile.  Version 3.6 may have removed
this limit on line lengths completely.
