Is the DLL built with GCC as well? There are also restrictions in Win32 on
where memory is allocated and then deallocated.

Yes, it is.

Not knowing anything about your code, it's almost impossible to tell
obviously. I however as usual suspect that there is a memory related
bug somewhere that's causing the later crash (at the very least, you're
seeing the typical symptom of that). I know it's not very helpful, but
I'll track the following:
  
  - try to pair allocation and deallocation
  - make sure memory allocation is one DLL is not freed by another DLL;
    ditto for main program.
