This is not an OS limit, but is a Microsoft's hard coded limit into
the MS C Runtime libraries (msvcrt.dll). You can increase this limit
rebuilding from sources the runtime libraries.

I have got in the past some successful user's report about this.

Using MSYS+MinGW don't change the problem, because MinGW is based on
msvcrt.dll.
