I got really fed up with the current command line parser and I have a fully-rewritten version that is not recursive and is (I hope) cleaner and simpler to understand, and as a side-effect I believe it won't run into this memory issue. It works well on UNIX and passes all the regression tests. However, I got bogged down trying to reproduce the special behaviors for other systems particularly the various Windows platforms. I will make another attempt this weekend.
