In our previous episode, I had determined that even the latest version
of Icon on my SCO Unix box still crashed during icont linking of my Icon
code. Removing just a few lines makes the crash go away.
Previous respondants are:
Clinton Jeffery, "shouldn't be a limit, can you reproduce it?"
Ralph Griswold, "The SCO compiler was pretty buggy, could that be it?"
(remarks are paraphrased)
More new info: I've downloaded the MS-DOS 386 binaries, and I can
reproduce the crash, and then have it link successfully if I make the
same source (my source, not the Icon source) changes as I do in the SCO
platform.
Here's what DOS icont.exe said when it crashed:

No errors
Linking:
ILLEGAL ADDRESS HAS CAUSED A PAGE FAULT
absolute address = 1005BB38 DGROUP relative address = 0005BB38
error code = 0006
eax = 00009E34 esi = 0005BB34 flags = 3206 ds = 0033
ebx = 00009E30 edi = 00051D00 eip = 0000A89D es = 0033
ecx = 001569B2 ebp = 00000004 cs = 002B fs = 0000
edx = 0004B394 esp = DFFFE964 ss = 003B gs =
0000C:\DEV\DETA
So, anybody interested? I can bundle up my source and put it somewhere,
with works/fails versions of the appropriate file.
Thanks,
