I remember having a similar problem when I recently installed this.
This occurs in the invocation of LINK from within cl.  The default
DOS 3.3 linker doesn't recognize the switch.  The LINK.EXE (or is it
LINK.COM?) supplied with microsoft C does (and seems to be generally
upwards compatible otherwise).  What I did was to replace the LINK in
my DOS directory with the new one, which fixed the problem.
