Well, I don't have a WinXP machine, so I wouldn't be the best person
either.  I assumed, based on the content of your previous letter that you
were interested in helping figure out this problem.  Since you have a
WinXP machine with gdb, I assumed you want to have a look into it.  At the
very least, you could report what you get from the backtrace, should you
not desire to delve into the code.  So I was trying to be helpful by
fufilling what I thought you were requesting.

Obviously I was mistaken.

Cheers,
Nicholas
