The error occurs when a single configuration directive exceeds
100 tokens (or words).  This might happen with very long directives
(like a very large objectclass or access control directive), but
more generally happens due to unexpected continuations.  Note that
any line starting with white space is viewed as a continuation of
the preceding line.
