I have raised the limit to 1000 for the compiler stacks.  The MNJ
should fix this tomorrow.  Lorant points out that this message can
come from an error in which one sets a scalar to a character string.
This may be the cause of the problem (i.e. POP more items from the
stack than it has rather then PUSH more than it can hold).
