Yes thanks I have since found that (from ld --help) > see. binutils-2.16.91-20050827-1/ld/emultempl/pe.em > 289 D(SizeOfStackReserve,"__size_of_stack_reserve__", 0x200000), > > How about adding the following to MkRules? > MINGW32LDFLAG=-Wl,--stack=33554432 I have been trying that but I cannot make it work (checking the header). It seems the way that does work is -Wl,--stack=0xA00000. That does allow this example (with 8 vars) to always run on WinXP. -- Brian D.
