I have noticed an "undocumented" Error (I could not find it in the manual
which means I did not look in the correct place).
when I link my program using manx's ln I get:
Relocation Table error (or was that overflow) 0: -123
the negative number changes, and I get this message for each hunk that is
created. (i.e. if the program has three hunks I get this message
three times) This message comes up after both passes, and (I think)
before or during the cleanup. As well the linker generates a file, but it is
not executable.
I can get rid of this error message by adding some more code, or deleting
some code, however, the larger the program gets the more often this message
comes up.
On that same note. I had a problem the other day where by I got different
external variables not found. The variables did exist if I recompiled
the file containing the variable decleration it came up with a different
global variable not found. I finally recompiled the entire program and it
seemed to work, except that after some minor changes I got (for the first
time for this program) the above ln "Relocation Error"
This Relocation error has come up on many different (atleast 4)
systems and versions of manx and flag combinations
at home and at work.
I hope someone can shed some light onto this error: why it happens?
and how to get rid of it properly?
Thanks

Are you perchance running the fast file system? Did the problem appear
when you started doing so?
