--- Comment #1 from Philip Hazel <ph10@???> ---
This is another unimportant bit of hacky code in pcretest that does not expect
group names to be longer than 1024 characters. The comment in the code says
"Assume that 1024 is plenty long enough for the few names we'll be testing."
It was never envisaged that fuzzers would be hammering pcretest with random
junk.

However, I was wiser when I implemented pcre2test, which does diagnose overlong
names. This is not worth fixing.
