255 or thereabouts:

integer out
for maxp=3D250 to 260 do
	out=3Dopen("p.exw","w")
	puts(out,"without warning\nprocedure a(integer a0")
	for i=3D1 to maxp do
		printf(out,",integer a%d\n",i)
	end for
	puts(out,")\nend procedure\na(1")
	for i=3D1 to maxp do
		puts(out,",1\n")
	end for
	puts(out,")\n")
	close(out)
	if system_exec("exw p.exw",2)=3D-1 then
		printf(1,"failure at %d\n",maxp)
		if getc(0) then end if
		abort(0)
	end if
?maxp
end for
abort(0)
