It sounds like this will make the testcase unusable with many
small embedded targets, while it would be before, because the
target simply may not have enough memory for such a big array.
Does that sound right?  If so, then this calls for something like
either splitting this particular test to a separate testcase, or
do condition compilation attempting with and without the big buffer.
