The following error is from "Fatal-Error Messages" in the "Microsoft C
Optimizing Compiler User's Guide," Section E.3.1, Page 250, and in the
"Microsoft QuickC Compiler Programmer's Guide," Section D.1.1, Page
319:

C1053       compiler limit : struct/union nesting

            Structure and union definitions were nested to more than
            10 levels.

The error message and explanation given for C1053 in the "Microsoft
QuickC Compiler Programmer's Guide" is incorrect. It has been switched
with the message and description for C1027.

The compiler cannot recover from a fatal error; it terminates after
printing the error message.
