Subject: error compiling POV-Ray 3.0 w/ djgpp v2
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

I tried to compile POV-Ray 3.0 using djgpp v2 (which I just downloaded 
after seeing that POV-Ray 3.0 would not compile under djgpp v1.42), and 
all the .o files were built properly but when they were all to be 
linked I got an error something like this (don't remember exact 
wording):

pmode.a: error reading symbols: memory exhausted

pmode.a being one of four .a files linked (along with a LOT of .o 
files)

the total size of ALL .o and .a files to be linked was only about 1 MB 
- I have 16MB (I had NO memory-eaters at compile-time so I had 15MB 
available EMS/XMS, about 580k conventional), and nearly 20MB hard-drive 
space free

If anyone has any idea what could cause this problem and how to correct 
it I'd be greatly appreciative.

BTW- I'm using cwsdpmi.exe as the DPMI host and have emm386.exe (w/ 
MS-DOS 6.20) with the RAM option as the memory manager.

If the error is truly a lack of memory I guess I'm just out of luck.

Thanks.
