ISO C specififes a minimum string length that a conforming compiler must
be able to process. This is a lower bound and a decent compiler will not
have such a low limit, but to be an the safe side, current snapshots of
GCC and thus also GCC 3.0 (will) warn about strings exceeding this length.

No, I don't think so, for the result will be one big string.
