Manually compare the tos and gem runtime startup modules. Sources are
provided with Mark Williams C. You might also try linking directly with tos
startup instead of gem startup. The  the only thing you have to remember is
that linking with -VGEM also includes the Gem library. Link with something
like;

	ld -s -o output lib/gcrts0.o objectlist -lvdi -laes -lc

That should do it.
