Boy, do we need a FAQ or what? This question pops up every 2 months or so.
Here're some answers from a previous link that may help:

I've tried resegmentation without any improvement. These objects would seem to
be in the MacApp code itself and not my code.

Ouch, I've given sort of consulting answers to this question so many times. It
will be part of a new TN that we are hopefully shipping in a month's time
(Illuminations on MacApp Segmentation, imagine a bunch of monks working on a
very expensive book :-) ).
 
Anyway, the error messages says it all. Trick to go around the 16-bit offset
problem:
a) Try using the link -sortsg flag that will move the most called functions
within 16-bit offsets inside the segment. May work, may not.
b) Use model far, no more pc-relative problems (32-bit offsets).
c) Move Runtime.o as near the Main .o file as possible (hack in either the
Makeit produced file, or move things around in the "Build Rules and
Dependencies" so Runtime.o is nearer the self produced .o files.
d) Segment things so that calls are done inside the same segment (no jump
tables needed).
 
There might be other clever clues.

GatorMail-Q                   Segment woes
Hello,
I'm experiencing a strange error...
 
   ### Goliath:MPW:Tools:Link: Error: Jump table offset
   into code segment is
   greater than 32K. (Error 50) .READFROM
 
... when my MacApp 3.0.1 program is being linked.  It happened after I added a
couple of new classes to my App.  I thought at first that it might be because
one of my segments had gotten too big.  So I made sure all the new code was in
a segment on its own.  It still gets this error.
 
Has anyone seen this before?  Does this mean that I don't have space in my Jump
Table?  Any insights would be appreciated.
