First, are you sure you're calling the correct make?  I've heard there's
some sort of problem between Borland's make and GO32.  If that isn't the
problem, you should check out _conventional_ memory--you may need to load
some stuff high to have enough room to load 3 go32's (make, gcc, cpp/
cc1(plus)/as/ld).  If this is really not an option for you, try the low-
profile GNUish make (available in the simtel gnuish directory).
