In article 1346, the poster related a Turbo C 1.5 bug involving malloc.
Now I know nothing about assembler worth noting, but our local expert
gave the posting a scan and contributed the following, for what it may
be worth:
Compilation under large or huge memory models optimizing for speed generates
32-bit pointers, and only 386/68030 machines with 32-bit pointer capability
on the bus can run such code. Suggestions include using a 386 machine,
compiling under a different memory model if possible, optimizing for size
instead of speed, and not optimizing at all.
