It's fixed.  When I tried to condense the source I coudn't come up with
any part that would be more relevant than another, so I looked
elsewhere.

I'd been messing with the "RSXWDK" libraries and had gotten crt0.o moved
to the djgpp lib directory.  Recompiled the assembly file and everything
is fine.
For anyones future reference the messages were.
LD.exe:warning cannot find entry symbol start; defaulting to 000010d0.
LD.exe: final link failed; memory exausted.

Thanks for takeing the time to try and save me from myself.
