    I have been porting tools which use 'sh' functions, and due to the
lack of a '#!/bin/shV' mechanism, I have installed /bin/shV as /bin/sh.
    The machine appears to work fine in everyway except for a few shell
scripts where I get the message:
	xxxxx: no stack space
    I've been able to fix this for a few tools by using '/usr/bin/runbig',
but with no documentation on it I don't understand how/why this helps.
    Is my problem that 'shV' should be compiled with a large/hugh model ?
    Am I doomed to curse the '286 ?
don't exist ?
    These tools work on Ultrix 1.2+2.0, Sun 3.2, Uniplus V.2 and BSD 4.2
w/system V.2 sh, so they should work on Xenix also ...

    Any help would be appreciated. I eventually want to write all of this
in C, but I'd hate to be forced into doing it for a '286!
