SCO externs ... too many?

[William J Davis]

Help!!!!

   I am current developing a LARGE application using SCO Xenix 2.3.0
on a Samsung S800 and have observed the following. During the initial 
port of our package from an IBM RT, as well as an AT&T 3b2, the loader
seems unable to resolve large numbers of external references.
Experimentation further proved that if the number of externs was reduced
past some unknown threshold, suddenly the problem would vanish! ;-(

   This solution is less than desired because our system consists of
over 35 binaries, of which I have spent a week getting 4 of them to
load successfully. I have a call into SCO, but they say they can't
help unless they can replicate the problem, short of me sending them
5 meg of libraries ( yes, I said 5 meg!)  ;-(

   Has ANYBODY experienced this problem before and, if so, WHAT do
I do??? Thanx in advance.
