An update - it appears that my PRC w/80 segments won't launch on any device,
and totally fails in the emulator as well. The workaround is to edit this
automatically-generated file and do my own "#pragma segment"s, instead of
letting it automatically add them.
This tool is Sybase Ultralite 7.0, btw.
So I guess my revised question still stands - what limits the # of CODE
segments a PRC can contain? Are there performance penalties as the number
of segments increase?
