    [EXPAND] Removed herefd hack

    The herefd hack goes back more than a decade.  it limits the amount of
    memory we have to allocate when expanding here-documents by writing the
    result out from time to time.  However, it's no longer safe because the
    stack is used to place intermediate results too and there we certainly
    don't want to write them out should we be short on memory.

    In any case, with today's computers we can afford to keep the entire
    result in memory and write them out at the end.
