Quite late comment after working down my batch of unread mail: The patch was *not* *only* to avoid fixed length buffers - it was invented to stop mummer from *crashing*. I do not remember the case exactly nor do I find the data any more but I *clearly* remember that we actually had example data which were causing mummer to crash without the patch.
