Out of space?

We are having a strange problem when uploading our code. It almost seems like we are out of space, but we do not really have much code written. Mostly we've used the camera code (although it is the "bells and whistles" version) and the gyro code.

The code compiles and runs fine, but then we might add something simple like a new printf() and then when uploading the yellow light will stay on and the terminal will show a hex dump.

We are going to start paring out some whistles (but hopefully leave the bells).

Is this definitely an oversize indication? One of our coders noticed this in camera.map:

Program Memory Usage
Start End
--------- ---------
0x000800 0x007f3f
30528 out of 132120 program addresses used, program memory utilization is 23%


Is there another more restrictive limitation somewhere? How do we determine if our generated hexfile is out of bounds?
