I'm only talking about this size issue. The size problem occurs already
in PrimOps.o (that is created from C-- sources "PrimOps.cmm").

Object splitting created the original file Utils__90.o with the size
problem.

(I don't now yet if the original Utils.o has a size problem, too.)

I suppose creating object files from plain C should not result in object
files with a size problem.

Simon, do you have any idea why PrimOps.o has this problem (although
only for a picky new linker)?

Good
