Coding for the 512K (possibly 128?) with Symantec

[Mu0n]

I usually go as low as using the Mac Plus as a target, using:
-Symantec C++ 6.0
-Using MacTraps and/or ANSI
-Default compiler settings, at least 384K of partition memory for the app

However, that starts to fail if I try launching those programs with a 512K emulated in Snow, Finder 4.1, using its 64k ROM file. I get a mac bomb ID=02.

I've tried:

-using the "Old MacTraps" library instead of "Mac Traps"
-lowering the partition memory used to 256K
-forcing the compiler settings to use 1-byte alignment for structs

None of those move the needle.
Do you absolutely have to use something like THINK C 3 or 4 to get there?

edit - Finder 4.1 under a Plus is able to launch my program, so it's not a Finder/System issue.

I bring you: MacBaby! A full-speed (0.7KIPs) Manchester Baby emulator (the world’s first stored program computer).

It’s written in THINK C 5 and runs on a Mac 128kB and 512kB Mac down to System 1.

At least one of the downloads should include the source code!

That's a really cool project.
Do you have a volume handy with THINK C 5 already installed or at least its disk in emulator friendly format? Between Snow, Basilisk II, Disk Copy 6.3 and 4.2 and not able to mount any .img and .image files I find for that compiler, it would save a lot of time and avoid frustration. I would love either .hda or .hfv.
