Umm. I got similar warning. The final command finishes with
single warning, as following:

Warning: library was too large for page size, rebuilt with page size 64

I'm using Turbo C++ compiler 5.5. Maybe the newer
library tools are more serious about the page size
issue, I should update to newer one to reproduce
the trouble. Which version do you use?

In the free download items of CodeGear, the products
since 2007 are provided as 30-days trials.
