Hello,
thanks for the hint with the -Xe parameter (the external linker is damned
slow!), now it compiles.
The difference in the object file size seems to be the different amount of
stored debug information; the declared structures have the same size
(SIZEOF(...) is the same.
Thanks for the help.
Greetings
Gerhard

The only explanation I have that it must have to do with the size of the
file; the .o has 8 MB and just defines some CONST and VAR structures, no
code.
Assuming (again ;-) - you haven't provided such information) that you
refer to the Win32 platform - could you disable internal linking (add
-Xe parameter)?
Interesting (maybe):
the .O which ppc386 made has 8.380.376 bytes,
the .OBJ made by vp has 7.002.097 bytes.
This difference in size could be due to different alignment rules.
Again, judging what goes wrong is difficult without being able to
reproduce it...
