Hello,

On my machine (ocaml 3.12.1 on linux 64 bits) with unlimited stack,
ocamlc and ocamlopt fails to compile a list constant of length 30000
which is a problem in code generated by another program.

Should this be considered a bug ?

Here is how to reproduce with grandelist.ml give below:

raffalli@d45-lama:~/Caml/patoline$ ocaml grandeliste.ml > foo.ml
raffalli@d45-lama:~/Caml/patoline$ ocamlc -c foo.ml
Fatal error: exception Stack_overflow
raffalli@d45-lama:~/Caml/patoline$ ocamlopt -c foo.ml
Fatal error: exception Stack_overflow

----------------- grandeliste.ml --------------------
open Printf

let _ =
  printf "let l = [";
  for i = 0 to 30000 do
    printf "%d;\n" i
  done;
  printf "0]"
----------------- grandeliste.ml --------------------
