I don't know why this limit exists on PowerPC machines, though, both
Metroworks CodeWarrior and MPW (Free C/C++ Development environment by Apple)
have this limit. Known by reports on other Japanese mailing list, MPW has
critial bug obtaining large stack more than 32K. (We can compile, but

Regarding the 32K size limit on local variables, the reason dates back to
the days of the 68K Macs. In a local routine, variables on the stack are
accessed as a 16 bit offset from a register, usually A6 (as opposed to A5
for global and "static" variables). They could be positively or
