While I agree that 128M is not significant these days, I wouldn't
recommend REGION=0 (as if anybody cares what I recommend). First, its
effect varies from shop to shop depending on an exit. (IEFUJI?) And if
the exit does let you have unlimited storage, I don't trust ANYTHING to
not have a runaway storage allocation bug. It's certainly unlikely, but
a really big fixed region size would eliminate the worry (where "big"
varies depending on the program) 500M would probably do it for the
assembler.
