RR> MS Link has been able to do overlays for years.

When it comes to linking Clipper applications, the Clipper Manual
states:

  Note: Overlays cannot be constructed with the DOS Linker.
  To construct overlays, use PLINK86-Plus.

                        p.7-7 Clipper Summer '87 Manual

RR> It has the added advantage of keeping the overlay code in the .exe
RR> file, rather than littering your world with .ovl files.

PLINK86-Plus has no problems with generating internal overlays.
