Global data is placed into a segment.  In 16 bit Windows and DOS the
segmented architecture is set by the hardware to a segment size of
64K.  Normal programming practice limits the number and size of
globals so this limitation should not be a problem.  However you can
work around this by adding the keyword _far in a declaration to cause
the item to be placed into its own segment.  For example: int _far
var_name[100];
