Ben, you could probably eliminate this problem by putting '-Dt128' in your
compiler and linker command line. It causes any static data larger than
that number of bytes to be assigned another segment, also make sure you
compile using large model, then things should work.

You can get the binary from turnkey quite quickly as we talk to crash, however
I suggest you check with Bill Blue first. If he is agreeable and drops me a
note I will tell him the relevant files and paths.

						Best of luck,
