You are running into limits on the size of a function body. You can't
safely make the body longer than about 2700 bytes in 6.5.*. The limit
is about 8K in 7.0, and 7.1 will have effectively no limit.

You really should upgrade ;-). In the meantime, your only alternative
is to write shorter functions. Try splitting the work into multiple
functions...
