Summary: Parsing lengthy options fails in configuration file

Details: Hi!

I have tested creating a $HOME.sablevm file with the following content:

--- BEGIN  ---
class-path=0123456789... (continuing for a very long time)
--- END ---

When I do this, I get the following error message:

$ sablevm 
sablevm: unable to open config file /home/egagnon/work/etc
Invalid syntax in /home/egagnon/.sablevm: 123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123

Eh...

Could I get a copy of the file you used?  It
might be running up against some internal
constraint of the fgets function, in which case
we'll have to re-implement using fgetc.

However, I suspect there's some parsing issue
with the line-based reads and realloc's.

Thanks,
