I have tried porting GNU e?grep to DOS using MSC 5.1 and am having all
kinds of problems.  It continuously runs out of memory while building the
Regular Expression.  I have tracked down all the [mc]alloc(0) and realloc(0)
I think.  But it still bombs on the khadafi test before it finishes making
the RE.

I have tried all memory models and adjusting the stack size.  Does anyone 
have any ideas?
