When gcc optimizes, it uses more memory.  It just might be that for
the particular source file you were compiling it runs out of the
free physical RAM when you turn optimizations on.

If it doesn't support virtual memory in DPMI mode, you indeed shouldn't
use go32 in DPMI mode with that version of 386max.
