And here it is: An assumption that average line length is at most 16:
max_pipe_words = (db->options->max_wordfile_memory/16);
Once you get to a block of lines that has a longer average line length,
we will start overwriting stuff. Not sure what's the best fix for this
(increasing it to 256 does not fix it for the Rockyou list, and even if
it would it would be very ineffective) but now at least we have --stdin
working again.
Maybe we should assume format.maxlength instead, *and* truncate when
reading? I'll let Jim decide.
