When linking, the following error may be caused by incorrectly
specifying the parameters for the /SE switch on the link command line
with the colon:
LINK : fatal error L1008: SE: segment limit set too high
To generate the error, link using the /SE switch, then insert a space
and the number of segments for the linker to use, such as the
following:
LINK /SE 1024
The correct syntax for the /SE option is with a colon separating the
switch from the numeric argument as follows:
LINK /SE:1024
