U guys seem to have hit a problem I ran into some months ago.
Im my case I was using the developers kit.  The patch involved setting up
a "truncate" call after the application program was entered, but before the
real "main" subroutine was called.  "_end" marked the end of the data space for the job.
If U are using the developers kit, then U have an out of date start-up routine.
Later distributions of the software (gems and/or gemstart.o) do the memory
deallocate for you at start-up.
Buzz me if U want more specific help.
