Has anyone out there been able to get GNU C to compile a decently large file?
I got GCC off of atari archive and installed it on my HD, and compiled a
couple benchmarks, but when I tried to anything larger than about 120 lines
it ran out of memory.  I stripped my system to the bare minimum and had about
850K left over (out of 1 meg), but this only gave me the ability to compile
about another 40 lines.  BTW, when I use optimization, I can compile files
that are <50 lines.

Please help!
