Relative paths lead to full link line with all libs :

./liblist -m . < libname.map | tr " " "\n" | wc
## 110 libs

Absolute -m path that is over 85-90 characters in length (max lib length
is 40 chars) leads to silent truncation of libs listed on the link line.

./liblist -m $PWD < libname.map | tr " " "\n" | wc
## 36 libs

From the config/liblist.c code it is clearly due to the use of
char libname[128]

Clearly the workaround is to use relative paths, but nevertheless ... a trivial fix could avoid others the chore of tracking this down in future.

Also using a really long path, will cause it to segment...

Segmentation fault
