Well, it may have been over 32 KB; I'm not sure. In any case, only
the first 1,024 bytes (or so) made it in.
The expression:
(read-line (cpc-stin cpc) nil nil)
Where (cpc-stin cpc) was explicitly set to *terminal-io*, and the
input is being done from a terminal.
It looks like every input test with less than about 1 KB works okay.

Oh, and one more thing: It looks like read-line has a 1,024 character

There used to be some limit like this but it was fixed long ago. I
can't reproduce this. Can you give an example of this failure? I
created a file with 30000 characters and a new line. read-line
reads in
this line without problems.
