   |  Please look at the line.
 
 OK, done that, the "lilne" is 600 continuation lines (well, 599, plus the
 original) - saving just that "line" produces a file 61712 bytes big.
 
   | The line is probably generated with "make depends" (using g++ -M).
 
 Yes, it looks to be.
 
   |  If syntax of the line is really fault,
 
 I don't see anything I'd call an actual syntax error, just  the
 line length, so ...
 
   |  this issues is came from g++ in NetBSD-4 (or wrapper of pkgsrc),
 
 it probably isn't that one, but ...
 
   |  If not, came from bmake in NetBSD-4.
 
 I guess this must have a problem with truly big lines (continued
 lines, none of the individual physical line lengths look much bigger
 than 100 bytes or so).
 
 If this works in NetBSD 5, perhaps bmake has been fixed to deal with
 this, in which case maybe for NetBSD 4 we need to use devel/bmake
 rather than the system's built in make?
 
 I'll give that a try a bit later when I get some time.
