Not to sound harsh, but you should read the linker doc. DGROUP is the
default data segment(and we all know that segments cannot be larger than
64k in 16bit DOS land). Without going into a discussion of what is in
DGROUP, you can most likely fix this by using the /Gt# _compiler_ option
where # is any number from 0-64k. I'd suggest 5). This will cause data of
# size and larger into it's own data segment and then it won't be in DGROUP

Pro*C generates many data structures per C file and since you have 14, I
can see how the above error would occur.
