[GD-Windows] VC makes absurd code

[Sergei M. <se...@ha...>]

Hello everybody!
A nasty problem - MSVC 6.0 / SP 5 generates absolutely absurd code - a
conversion from 'const char *' to 'const std::string' crashes in any target
configuration except Debug one. When looking closely at the code we saw the
problem - compiler generates code like that:
  push 0
  ...
  pop  edx
  mov  [edx], bla-bla

STLport used.
So, it is a problem with the optimizer I guess, but what it really wierd is
that it happens only on my computer - I check all possible options, paths,
service packs (MSVC/Win2k), processor packs - still nothing. Now I use
Release builds from other computers, but I am totally clueless what can
cause such a problem! Anyone experienced anything similar? Thanks!
