    I know of one other instance of this happening under similar circumstances. 
(Fairly large program) The hapless fellow informs me that on contacting Manx
he was told that that particular message was due to a bug in the linker. Maybe
you should get in touch with Manx and they may have some suggestions. One is
probably not to have too many large statics defined.
The other solution is to get Lattice .. :-)
