I am having problems creating a large object module library using
Lattice C's oml command.  Has anybody else had experience dealing with
these?

The symptoms are:
oml will quit with the message

     Copy: Library too big

and leave a "oml.$$$" file around. I assume this is the temporary work
file which will eventually get renamed to my library.  This file is
280648 bytes large (about right for my application; including debuggable
stuff).  When I try to list the symbol table using

     oml -s mylib.lib l

it returns an scan error. Does anybody have any suggestions on how to
work around this without breaking it into a series of small libraries?
This is really only 1/4 of the estimated size for my final library!!
(Yes, it really needs to be large since it is the front-end shell to a
CAFP system for multimedia applications).

Thanks for any ideas.
