Hi,

I have compiled the test program also with msvc for the ebox4300 device. It 
seems msvc has the same behavior, the stack66000 fails. 

It is strange why some of our tests do fail with gcc and not with msvc due to 
the stack issue. Seems we can't resolve this with cegcc, it is something in 
windows ce
