 To all those people who kept telling me to run the compiler in protected
 mode: you were right.

 The program I'm working on took 8 minutes to link in normal mode,
 4 minutes with Hyperdisk in staged write mode, and 6 SECONDS when
 I run the compiler in protected mode, and that's running under Windows.

 Color me astounded. I would kind of like to know where all that extra
 time is going in normal mode.

 Thanks for the help.
