Sorry, but I cannot reproduce your problem.  I got your `crash.zip', but 
on my system it compiles without any problems.  I tried with and without 
-O, with and without -O2, with and without -m486, under QDPMI and 
CWSDPMI--nothing seems to crash the compiler.  On my system, cc1.exe is 
stubedited to 512KB stack, but I stubedited it back to the default 
256KB--still no dice.

So please provide more information (as this might be a problem that only 
raises its ugly head under certain circumstances):

	1) Add "-v -Q" to the compilation command line and post 
everything that gets printed (you might consider using `redir' to 
redirect that output to a file).

	2) Run go32-v2 without arguments and post everything it prints.

	3) What DPMI server do you use?  Can you try running under an 
alternative server and see if the problem persists?

	4) Did you try stubediting cc1.exe to 512KB stack as Charles 
Sandmann advised, and if so, did it help?
