Re: Windows + MP2 in a production environment

[Issac Goldstand <suppressed>]

Unfortunately, so far not yet...  We haven't been able to get it to 
reproduce on a test machine yet - the setup on the problematic machine 
is Dual hyperthreading 3.0Ghz Xeons with 3GB RAM, running Win2003 Server 
SP1. 

The closest we've got to match that setup is with a dual core Pentium-D 
3.4 Ghz machine with XP SP2, or a VMWare VM with 2 virtual processors 
(host machine is a Pentium 4-HT 2.8 Ghz machine) with 1.2GB RAM running 
win2003 SP1.

I'll post the exact error messages, as well as a workaround that someone 
put together (definitely workaround and not fix - he just wraps the 
deepest crashing subroutine in a Visual C __try {} block, as I 
understand; I haven't seen it myself yet), as soon as I can.
