Some time ago I posted a request for help on running out of stack size.
A number of people pointed me to the /Gt compiler option under MSC5.1
which allows you to set a static data threshold above which the data
is put into another segment than the default.  While exploring this
option I also read about the /Au and /ND options, which seem to offer
the further benefit of allowing you to specify which segments the static
data should be inserted.  When I tried rebuilding my application with
these options (/AL /Au /ND CRDATA), the resulting code crashed the system.
I've been unable to glean any further information from the manual why
this is not ok.  Any ideas out there?

Thanks again,
