The -Wc,-Ns option should be followed by the number of symbols to be allocated.
For example:

	-Wc,-Ns4000

Will allocate symbol table space for 4000 symbols.  By default, space is
allocated for 2000 symbols.  For compiler releases after hp-ux 7.0, the
-Wc,-Nx options are no longer necessary; all tables expand automatically.
