Re: static initializer

The .map file is created in the same location as your .elf which is 
specified in your target settings in CW.

The map file for the 86kb compile put most of the .text section 
outside the MPC555 memory range too, so you would have trouble as 
soon as you called any of those functions.

Unfortunately I don't know how to get the linker to raise a warning 
when you exceed a memory limit, if anyone does I would be grateful 
for this info. I use a linker configuration file (.lcf) to explicitly 
locate data structures in memory. That way I can persist data between 
resets. The linker will flag up a warning if the sections overlap 
because they are too large. I place the data at the end of RAM, so if 
the code is too big I get the warning.

I suggest you have a good long read of the documentation 
regarding .lcf, .map files and linking in general. It will be worth 
it.
