"limit" might be the best translation here.

I haven't tried a Windows build in a while, but I suspect the problem
might be that GCC can handle bigger string constants that VC++ can.

That might mean that we should make the FAQ a file installed in the
Ethereal installation directory, and should have the help code open that
file, read lines from it, and insert them in the text buffer, rather
than having it compiled into Ethereal.
