To date there are no "C" compilers that support large model
coding on the IBM AT (Intel 286 based). IS THIS CORRECT?  I
spoke with the author if the Lattice "C" compiler and he told
me of some design problems with the 286 that makes building
large model programs very difficult. I think there was some-
thing about a register changing function from the 8086 line.
I'd like to see some information on the net concerning large
model addressing - its problems, implementation details,
etc. Thanks.
