vi tag stack overflow?

I am using the SunOS 4.1.2 terminfo based vi.  I was going thru a long series
of :ta statements and when I got to about tag number 20, I got a msg from
vi that the tag stack had overflowed.  Is there some particular action I can
take to resolve this problem?

Has anyone taken the vi error msgs and written up a document describing one's
alternatives when encountering each one?  While most may SEEM clear to long
term users, having such a document would help a novice user's peace of 
mind and even a relative expert might be able to use some help with some 
of the more obscure errors .
