I compiled with ISE 5.7 and I get the same crash.

It isn't a low-memory access after all (I was writing from a garbled
memory - mine, not the computer's). The actual message in the dialog
box is:

The exception unknown software exception (0xc000000d) occured in the
application at location 0x00e5ad28.

So I'm guessing  it's a general problem with HTTP access from Windows
via EPOSIX.
Has anyone any experience with such an environment?
