Look at this piece of code. It seems that when myinput() had been called
once, for the second time it will return 0 even if string isn't
over yet. Parameter 'max' is 8192 bytes on my system. So the query is 
simply truncated to that size.

#ifdef FLEX_SCANNER
/* input routine for flex to read input from a string instead of a file */
static int
myinput(char* buf, int max)
{int len, copylen;
if (parseCh == NULL){    len = strlen(parseString);    if (len >= max)        copylen = max - 1;    else        copylen
=len;    if (copylen > 0)        memcpy(buf, parseString, copylen);    buf[copylen] = '\0';    parseCh = parseString;
return copylen;}else    return 0; /* end of string */
 
}
#endif /* FLEX_SCANNER */
