Turbo Prolog, Quintus, and perhaps other IMB PC implementations have memory
management problems - presumably caused by the 640K ceiling - such as rapidly
running out of stack space during recursion and a conflict between needing more
code space and more heap space.  Is there a solution using expanded memory?
Alternatively, is there a Prolog that runs under OS/2 or a UNIX for the IBM PC
that would avoid such problems by automatically accessing all memory?
