       I have an applications which 'Makes' it without any problems
in the VAX Ultrix environment (UWS 2.1) but fails on my DECstation 3100
(same UWS) with : 


----------------final output from Make (everything else runs fine)--------------

cc -O -DBSD4_2 -o cifp ciftype.o cifpars.o transform.o showcells.o cifsym.o allo
c.o color.o powerpack.o plotpack.o ambigcomp.o plotio.o cifp.o call.o  -lm
ld:
/lib/libc.a(_exit.o): jump relocation out-of-range, bad object file produced, ca
n't jump from 0x412d28 to 0x1000334c (abort)
*** Error code 1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    So , what the h... does   'jump relocation....' mean ?
