MinGW - Minimalist GNU for Windows

Maybe it crashes in the initialisation of one of the DLLs that your program
uses. What DLLs does it use? It would help if you could reduce the program
to the smallest amount of code that causes the crash.

Compiler bugs would likely affect all versions of Windows.
Version-specific bugs are more likely to be problems in the code,
either in the run-time library or in your own code.

What you need to do is run your program under gdb (or some other
low-level debugger), and identify why it's crashing.
