[changed memory model from small (16 bit) data pointer to large 
(32 bit) data pointer on IBM-PC, and program started hanging]

TC is tracking the ASNI standard.  This means that you should
	1) enable _all_ warning messages
	2) fix your code until all warnings are fixed
	3) #include header files for all library functions
Your problem is that you didn't include alloc.h, which defines malloc() as
returning a 32 bit pointer.  This was OK in 16 bit model, where TC assumed
malloc() returned an int, and converted it to a near pointer.  In large data
model, sizeof(pointer) != sizeof(int), so you must include the prototype for
any function that returns a pointer.
