   I managed to find main.c (in part 26) and found the errant symbol in my
   pd version of curses.  However, the default stack size of 2k by the
   linker is too small.  I set it to 16k and have not had a stack overflow
   yet.  Last night I did get an "integer divide by 0" error after descending
   down to level 3 (ie. immediately after the ">" command).

   Is there a recommended stack size?

In the function that creates the new dungeon, there are some pretty
large arrays declared on the stack.  What I did to compile it was to
change the arrays in the function cave_gen and build_tunnel(??) to be
pointers allocated in the function.  
(Btw, I am using Tc 2.0, huge mode)
I recall that the author has put the binaries and source on a machine in
berkely for public ftp access.  I can't recall the name, but if any of
the observent people out there remember it, tell it.
