Notice the fourth line starts to mention something it's not linking,
then truncates and mentions the next thing. This stuff was as
redirected to a file, and I looked at the file directly (as opposed to
through more) and this is really what was written. This happened under
Solaris but I haven't verified the non-behaviour on other platforms.
There appears to be nothing tricky about the output code; it all boils
down to simple printf's. And there was nothing going to stderr in this
invocation that I could see. (This was a synctree -n.)
