No, this is as a result of changes in src/rsrv between 3.14.11 and 3.14.12
because large arrays work fine in 3.14.11.
We introduced two major new features in the latest release, CA over TCP and
dynamic array sizing, and one of them (most probably the latter) has broken
the correct reporting of the element count. The CA protocol solved the
problem of only a having a 16 bit m_count field a long time ago, but it looks
like that hack^H^H^H^Hsolution didn't get propagated into the latest code.
