Microsoft C Link Failure

[Chuck Forsberg WA7KGX]

When attempting to link a moderately large medium model program using
the Xenix to DOS cross development library, I get a linker error as
follows:

Fixup overflow near 0000 in segment XP in
/usr/lib/dos/Mdlibc.a(CPREDATA) offset 54a1H

If I try to run the resulting program, the obvious result is that
exit() returns to the caller, not DOS.

Does anyone know how to fix this problem, other than making the program
small enough to fit in a 64k segment (which blows the purpose of the
medium model) ??

The Xenix OEM can't fix the problem because Microsoft is apparently not
releasing the source code to the DOS library.
