- I had this problem with 3.11 and 3.11c after I recompiled them. The problem
- is that the default stack size that LINK creates is too small. There is a
- line in main.c that is supposed to set the default stack to 20,000, but that
- statement doesn't seem to work with MicroSoft C 6.0A. I used EXEMOD to
- change the stack size and the help menu worked.
