No, I've never tried to do such...

It's really trashed. I notice that by compiler error report Illegal token
(or something like that) and then look into sources and find horror.

Well, I've tried R4 on 486 with 16MB. Sources were one half of these
today, it was slow but working! It's not likely to run out of mem on P233
with 64MB, but maybe... I might test it.
