gEDA-user: clues to m4 out of memory error

[Traylor Roger <traylor@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Guys,
  I pushed forward to pcb with the new .pcb file produced
  by gsch2pcb.  The .pcb file created was 6325162 lines long!  

  pcb barfs on the .pcb file with:
    ERROR parsing file '...../board.new.pcb'
    line:        6325139
    description: 'syntax error'

  At line 3060, which was the last element successfully created, I see:
 
 Element(0x00 "" "" "" 152 50 3 100 0x00)
 (
	 Pad(7 13 30 13 14 "1" 0x00)
	 Pad(7 39 30 39 14 "2" 0x100)
	 Pad(7 65 30 65 14 "3" 0x100)
	 Pad(7 91 30 91 14 "4" 0x100)
	 Pad(7 117 30 117 14 "5" 0x100)

  This continues to  line 6325162 where we see:
         Pad(7 -7424754 30 -7424754 14 "6322075" 0x100)
         Pad(7 -7424728 30 -7424728 14 "6322076" 0x100)
         Pad(7 -7424702 30 -7424702 14 "6322077" 0x100)
         Layer(1 "solder")     <---- this is line 6325139
(

  Impressive..., a 6322077 pin part.  I'd run out of memory too.

  Is M4 doing something with my part that it shouldn't?

Still baffled,

Roger Traylor
