Craig,

I can't say that I have actually built with /MDd on win32, though
if it provides a bunch of runtime heap debugging support it might
be a very good idea.  Do the error messages give any context
as to where the problem is?  What do you think I should try to
reprodue the problem?  Do you get errors with an operation with
the standard utilities that I could easily reproduce?

Best regards,
