It seems like the linker needs much more memory than the size of the
libraries and object files it processes. First of all, you should
check how much virtual memory you have available (go32-v2), if you are
running under anything else than cwsdpmi (Windows etc), you could try
to set the maximum available DPMI memory size as large as possible
(e.g. 64MB in Win95). If you are running cwsdpmi, see if there is
enough space on drive C, if not, configure it to use another
partition.
