1) I sent report to many well-known people on OS/2
(Knut, Paul Smedley, Andreas, Sander, Ulrich)
so all of them know this problem
2) I reported Knut response to Harbour group
See message
OS/2: Harbour 13841
12/02/10 08:57 AM
Knut send same response to all, so they know response
3) I posted a ticket in
svn.netlabs.org/libc
4) I opened an account in mantis.smedley.info, but response to confirm
account delayed to much and I found it in spam folder
5) I have not posted ticket in mantis yet
If you contact Paul you can recall him for my original message, and if
you post ticket in mantis, you can use same content I used in netlabs
Content are below
What I see is: change to os2gcc will be available in future releases, so
maybe only for os2gcc442 and greater and not for os2gcc335. It will
force you to change your os2gcc compiler
Cons: You need to make adjustments to your environments/systems
Pros: You will be carried to present :-)
Availability of next os2gcc release depend of Paul and his plans

Ticket content ============
In Harbour for OS/2 development ( www.harbour-project.org ) we face from
long time a problem using os2gcc compilers when we try to build some
.dll files
Tracing I found an now famous 32 Kb limit:
Somewhere gcc is using 32 Kb limit for our case
gcc --> emxomfld.exe ( ld.exe )
( or is OS/2 limit ? :-) )
Below are first quick and clear Knut St. Osmundsen response
Thanks, David Macias
Yes, this is an OS/2 limitation. The usual workaround is to pass the
arguments in a response file (emxomfld @filename.rsp). Without checking
all the relevant code, I'm pretty sure that the compiler/linker driver
(gcc) will not create a response file when invoking sub programs like
as, ld or emxomfld. The easiest way to hack it into doing this would be
to change pexecute() in libiberty/pexecute.c to create a response file
for arguments exceeding, say, 24 KB.
