I have a large program that I am trying to compile with the -g option
under the latest update of the Xenix 386 C compiler.  When compiled
with out debug the executable is about 700k, when I try to compile for
debug, I get 2/3 of the way thru the compile befor the .o files eat all
of the 20meg of free space that I have ~ravailble, would some one
like to hazard a guess as to why the friggin thing looks like the object
files want to 30 meg when the non debug ones take about 650k?
