Hi Jeff,
I think this is resolved now.
Here the CVS comment:

&quot;&quot;&quot;
repaired an ugly bug, reported by Jeff Senn:
After virtualizing the stack save/restore functions,
the switching routine did need less registers, and
so the bx register was not preserved.
I added a dummy opcode that enforces this.
Thanks to Jeff!!
&quot;&quot;&quot;

This problem affected the windows build, only. I tested
on Linux, and things work.

ciao - chris
