I'm would guess that your (void *) is meerly type coecing an
integer(2 bytes) into a 4 byte pointer.  This does not work in
the compact model where pointers are 4 bytes.  Try adding the 
declaration   extern void *malloc();   to your program.  
It is good to remember the rule in C that things always default
to type int if not specified.
