Sometimes compilers try to do non-REDIRECT-supported things with their
temp files, like sectorwise access.  I had this problem with some of the
Intel tools.  To get around it, you need to put your temp files
somewhere that supports the operations: a real DOS partition
(/dev/rdsk/0s5), or the C: pseudofilesystem (but this never shrinks,
making it a poor choice for repeated temp files), or a RAM disk.  I
suggest using the ems.sys driver.
