Summary: windres crashes on XP when using pipes

Initial Comment:
windres version 2.14.90 20030612 crashes when launched
from bash with --no-use-temp-file ("windres.exe has
encountered a problem and needs to close"), with
--use-temp-file it works fine.  if started from cmd.exe
or other non-msys application, it works fine.  I did
not have this problem yesterday, when I was still
running win2k pro.

I can reproduce this bug only when MinGW is installed under
a directory in which some parent contains a space. Workaround:
use the short name in the path environment.

Looking at his environment, that is not the problem in this
case however.

Both msys and native views of the environment follow.  I
have basically reinstalled the system, so I can't tell the
exact difference, but both the environment and microsoft
native runtime libraries have changed.  The exception occurs
at address 0x77c3c3b3, which I believe is msvcrt.dll (base
address 0x77c10000).

What's in the PATH variable?
What else in the environment variables may different between
the two systems?

You've tripped a known bug, that I've not been able to
eliminate.  Version 1.1.0 will not show the bug as far as
I've been able to determine.  My time to work on MSYS has
shortened so the length at which I'll have a snapshot up has
lengthened.

Earnie.
