I believe in this case the exception is result of what seems to be a CLR limitation. The code (in this case one static method) IronPython needs to generate to handle this input is too big and CLR/Jit then throws invalid program exception.
The only workaround I am aware of is to split the code up to multiple functions.

The problem does not occur under the IP Console (which I guess doesn't use ExecuteFile). My best guess is that the problem occurs when the complexity of the parse tree exceeds some particular limit. Does anyone have any ideas for a workaround or a fix? This one is causing us serious problems, so any thoughts would be much appreciated.
