I was trying to use emx 0.8e gcc.  I my program, I need to have a 
lge static data sturcture in the beginning of main().

The program compiled fine using gcc. ( as usual, it crash using
Borlandc C++ 3.1 cause each element in my array is > 64k, and I 
have a thousand of them. )

But when I tried to run it, it tried to claim all my disk space
as swap file.  Even I have 20 meg on my HD, it still tried to 
use it all and keeps on going until it crash OS/2 all.

I've heard that it is a general gcc ( whether UNIX or OS/2 ) problem.
And from the newsgroups, I was told that FSF is trying to fix
this.

Wondering whether anybody have this problem before and whether
there is a way to fix this? I mean without changing the program
at all.  There is some other ways I can implement the data structure
but I am curious to see how to fix that problem

Thank you all in advance
