Subject:pop11 on new sparcs 
From:cs 
Volume-ID:940719.01 

I wonder if anyone can shed any light on why we can't run pop11 on a new
sparc workstation we have just bought. The error message would have us believe
the 16 MB of memory are all busy on some other process, but there aren't any
other processes running:

csparc24:cs>pop11

;;; MISHAP - rom: NO MORE MEMORY AVAILABLE (needing callstack space)

Pop works fine on all our other older sparcs, so having talked to our support
staff, I thought I'd see if anyone else with a new sparc has had (and solved)
the same problem. The technical details for the workstation are below.
