Although it's not linker-related, are there any known limitations on
recursive search paths for the compiler (other than exceeding ARG_MAX)?

For me, recursive header search paths sometimes fail to expand; they'll
include some of the directories under the top, but not all.


There's an example app on rdar://4169166, but it seems to happen well
before ARG_MAX (256Kb) is exceeded.

It's happened since 2.0, with either gcc 3.x and 4.x, on multiple
machines, doesn't seem to be due to accented characters or whitespace,
and there doesn't seem to be any way to predict which directories will
be left out of the expansion.

Are there any internal limits this might be running into that could be
worked around, vs a bug?
