     Be sure to update the limits in format.def for A and AHEX
     formats, then.  These should be written in terms of MAX_STRING,
     but aren't.  

Done that for the A format.  I hadn't considered the AHEX format.
Perhaps I'll leave that at 510 bytes max, until at least I get a
chance to see how spss behaves with long AHEX formats.

     I suspect that there might be other instances of
     hard-coded limits around, too.

Indeed, there were many.  I think I've fixed them all.
