Page 1 of the the "Microsoft C 5.10 (and 5.00) Quick Reference Guide"
states the following under the /Au switch:

   "SS not equal to DS; DS loaded for each module"

This should read as follows:

   "SS not equal to DS; DS loaded for each function"

This message is correctly noted on Page 154 of the "Microsoft C 5.1
Optimizing Compiler User's Guide."
