Your array uses about 4K of stack.  What stack size have you allocated?  
The default value is 2K, or at least it is with MSC 6.0, so of course 
you would get a stack overflow unless you changed the default.  You can 
change the stack size by using the /F option to CL, or the /STACK option 
to LINK.
