[svn-r15564] bin/release failed in creating the release tar file, complaining
/bin/tar: Argument list too long.
After some digging, I found that the tar arguments list generated from
MANIFEST was over 138940 bytes long. This was due to both more number
of files (2153) in the manifest to be distributed and the version name
(hdf5-1.9.8-metadata_journaling_a1) was a bit long. I changed the version
name to hdf5-1.9.8-MDJ_a1 which is 16 bytes shorter, resulting the argument
list to be 34448 bytes shorter. That seems acceptable to kagiso as the
tar command ran successfully.
So, I abbreviated the version name. This is a temporary fix. A real fix
would be to use consecutive tar commands, each with a reasonably shorter
list of arguments to generate the final tar file.
