Well....  Seeing that you state excessive header files,
I bet the symbol table is getting full.  Possibly using BCCX will help.
Other than that, I think you might look through the headers to see which
you may not need.  That will also cut down the number of symbols the
preprocessor and compiler are trying to keep track of.
