Yes, it seems to be gone -  I also turned several startup_flag on and off -
but for some strange reason I never touched the _CRT0_FLAG_UNIX_SBRK...

I belief the error occured because the original quake.exe that was shipped
with the game was compiled on a unix-machine with a cross-to-dos compiler
that switched _CRT0_FLAG_UNIX_SBRK on as standard i belief.
