Invalid string length #4929

Hello,

I'm using yarn v1.3.2 and I have a bug.

What is the current behavior?
I'm running yarn from js like this:

    ({ stdout, stderr } = await exec('yarn install --ignore-scripts  --ignore-engines', {
      cwd: tmpDir,
      shell: true,
      env: { NODE_ENV: 'dev', PATH: process.env.PATH },
    }));
    logger.debug(`yarn stdout:\n${stdout}`);
    logger.debug(`yarn stderr:\n${stderr}`);

And I often get: "stderr": "error An unexpected error occurred: \"Invalid string length\".\n"

Here is my trace:

Trace: 
  RangeError: Invalid string length

You you can see the package.json that I have (nothing really special?):
