I completed the configure and make successfully but "make install" gives 
me the following error:

Making install in rlm_eap_gtc...
gmake[11]: Entering directory 
`/data/software/freeradius-1.0.5/src/modules/rlm_eap/types/rlm_eap_gtc'

I understand that the "Argument list too long" error is from the OS 
because the argv list is probably exceeding the 128K buffer. Usually the 
workaround is to rewrite the offending commands so that the argument 
lists are shorter. Has anyone run into this problem before and do you 
have any tips on how I can workaround this?
