Windows XP: *** Input is too long
Solaris 8: [...] is not in legal name syntax (label too long)
AIX 4.3: LEX Error: input string too long to fit in yywtext[].
Increase the array size by defining YYLMAX to be a higher
value
HP-UX 11.00 and 11.11: Memory fault(coredump)
I'm guessing the bug is in the BIND 4 distribution of nslookup and was
fixed in BIND 8.
And no, it does not surprise me that Windows might use the BIND code.
