So it is really a dos application. In that case, according to Ove's
email it seems there is no way past the 128 character limit (can we
increase the PSP size without breaking binary compatibility?).
So the big question is:
 * does this work in real dos?
 * how does it pass the arguments?

I believe 32KB long command lines are already supported... but for
Win32 applications, not Dos applications. Just checked and it does work
for Win32 applications (at least up to 1500 chars, I don't have the
patience to copy/paste more ;-).

In theory, theory and practice are the same, but in practice they're different.
