Public bug reported: glpk uses a fixed-sized buffer when parsing mathprog input; and the buffer size is a tiny 100 bytes. This can cause problems when reading or writing files with long paths; and especially when using SQL input.
Suggest changing this to something much larger but still reasonable, at least 8,000 bytes and preferably more.
