In the test "bronf1 - graph - gursoy_atun_layout_test / gcc-cygwin_4.3.2", 
there is an error "execvp: Argument list too long".  I understand that 
those tests have not run recently, but is there a way around that length 
problem?  I believe Cygwin has a response file feature that allows longer 
command lines.  Is this problem important enough to suggest using that 
feature?  Also, will that platform start to have tests run again?
