The looong lines should be broken, but the "stack overflow" is something
different.  Neither CWEBbin nor TL-CWEB ever cared to increase the
'stack_size' to a higher value than '400'.  If I add this to
'cweav-extensions.ch' (or 'cweav-w2c.ch') and increase the 'stack_size'
to, say, '2000', then 'cweave mf [mf]' runs through (with a few warnings
about unused sections).

So, I guess you'll have to hack your own 'cweave' with a higher
'stack_size' and I make a note for TL 2021.  Sorry.

Best,
Andreas
