	Because of the way the Macintosh Segment Loader works (2 bytes offset
in jump tables), mac code segments are limmited to 32K.  I think that you will
find that ALL Mac C compilers, will have the same complaint.

What version of the MagHax system are you using?  Are you using the batch
thingy ?  What could have happened if you were, is that you ran the compiler,
it produced errors, and a .o file, and the batch guy just continued on its
way merrily linking.

The compiler DOES produce a .o file when it fails, and the linker does barf
in a manner simmilar to the one that you described when given the result of
a failed compile.  Be sure to check the 'status ()' of compiles in batch files.

					Appropriate Remarks,
