[ Upstream commit 8a4c5b2a6d8ea079fa36034e8167de87ab6f8880 ]
The 'shell' built-in only returns the first 256 bytes of the command's output. In some cases, 'shell' is used to return a path; by bumping up the buffer size to 4096 this lets us capture up to PATH_MAX.
The specific case where I ran into this was due to commit 1e860048c53e ("gcc-plugins: simplify GCC plugin-dev capability test"). After this change, we now use `$(shell,$(CC) -print-file-name=plugin)` to return a path; if the gcc path is particularly long, then the path ends up truncated at the 256 byte mark, which makes the HAVE_GCC_PLUGINS depends test always fail.
