Pc problems

	I have been having some strange problems with the Berkeley Pascal
compiler.  A program which runs with no problem under pi/px and is compilable
by pc with no errors does nothing but generate linefeeds when the pc version
is run.  The program itself is 155K long, but I isolated the main compound
statement, stripping it of everything but one writeln('....'), and the same
thing happened (the rest of the code was supposedly inaccessible, but when
I used adb to look at what was going on, I was flying through procedures to
which I had no execution path).  Short programs work quite well on this
compiler, and I have compiled a 250K program successfully as well, although
I had to use the -J flag to get the assembler to like the output.  Has anyone
had similar aggravation with pc?  If so, are there any known fixes, or lacking
such patches, is there a way to circumvent the pc bugs?
