I was compiling a large project under CSDPMI on DOS mashine with8Mb
of RAM. Apperently, I had  < 10Mb of disk space available
and got a crash on linking with following message (below).
This is in contrast with the expected "Virtual Memory Exhausted"
I got with a few more Mb of free disk space.
(of cause, everything built OK when I clean 20M more disk space).

Does that a problem of ld or cwsdpmi or make?
I am especially surprised with "FPU unavailable" message near the
bottom (I use emu387.dxe from 2.02 december 13 distribution without
problem). May be DXE loader have not check for free memory or so (just
a guess).
