            Bug ID: 106241
           Summary: compiler can't handle large array of strings
           Product: gcc
           Version: unknown
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c++
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: robert.durkacz at gmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

Compiler fails with an internal error when given an unreasonably large source
file. This is because I am simply trying to get a large string array put direct
into object code. My personal interest in reporting this as a bug, whether it
is or not, is to get any advice what is a better way to do what I am trying to
do.

Source code is included here in this description.
