Str() limitation 

Hi,

? length(Str(10^4094))
0                            

Lurking around points to the following:

src/language/anal.c:#define TOTAL_STRING_ARG 4096 /* Total length of string args */

So my question is, what's the reasoning behind this limitation, and what are the
consequences, if any, of lifting this limit?  Memory consideration?

Thanks

Igor
