There is usually another problem with the approach of generating a
large parser on a Unix box and then try to run the code under
MS DOS -- runtime stack space !


I've implemented a parser for a source code documentation system
using that technique. The program had no problems under Unix, but
crashed in the DOS version (and the parser was smaller than ANSI C's)


Try increasing the runtime stack of the MS DOS executables as much as
possible. How to do this is compiler dependent.
