Serial.begin breaks my sketch

What would cause adding Serial.begin to break my sketch? It compiles fine but doesn't return any serial data or even really start the main loop. Serial communications works fine on this Arduino with other sketches.

void setup()   // declare pins
{
 Serial.begin(9600);
// Serial.println(arduinoAdd);

delay(100);

It compiles fine...

Nope.

sketch_mar21a.ino: In function 'void setup()':
sketch_mar21a.ino:6: error: expected `}' at end of input

It's an SRAM problem. I had a large 2-D array that was excessive.

No, that wasn't in the partial sketch you posted.
