   If you are using a version of djgpp earlier than 2.0, this could be a 
possible explanation:
 
   Your problem is that you don't have enough low memory for multiple instances
of GO32 . If your makefile is recursive, each time make is called it will try
to load it's own copy of GO32 and since each copy occupies approx. 130k of low
memory it's understandable why it stops. In this case the solution is to free
as much low memory as possible by removing all unnecessary TSRs and moving all
necessary ones to upper memory. Best candidate for this is Smartdrive.
