A colleague of mine is writing a C program for image analysis and 
compile it using Microsoft C Optimizing Compiler Version 5.10. He has 
an array of 640x480 declared. When he compiled the program with the 
huge option (i.e. -AH), it gave him this "exceed 64K memory allocation" 
error and refuse to compile. How can one exceed (if it is possible at
all) this 64K memory allocation barrier in MS C?
