[tac_plus] tac_plus*** buffer overflow detected *** PROBLEM

[Kiss Gabor (Bitman)]

> "SHOULD" != "MUST".  but, i still dont understand the problem you're having.

The problem:

Parser can read lines as long as 1024 chars,
and no continuation lines are allowed.
However IOS XR authorizaton model may requires 2-3 kB long
list of user groups and permissions when logging in.

At this moment we have to configure a looooong list of reasonable
task groups into all ASR9000-s instead of sending it from
central authorization server.
