Hi all!

Does anyone know of any limits for gcc with case statemts?  My yyparse
function is HUGE, with about 1700 case statements, and gas seems to not be
able to jump that far, I get an error message about Index out of bounds in
gas, and it looks like when I cut down to about 1200 case statements, the
indexes slowly creep back into range until it compiles fine.  Is there a flag
in gcc to allow for larger switch statements in a file or any help would be
appreciated.  Thanks!
