Move your "static" declarations in functions out to the top level of
the file, from:

main()
{
	static int big[30000];
	/* lotsa stuff */
}

to 

static int big[30000];
main()
{
	/* lotsa stuff */
}

The same thing happens under Microsloth C.  Pain in the ass, and nasty
for scoping, but Intel real mode is Intel real mode...
