fio 2.1.4 intermittently crashes on windows

[Todd Dworshak]

Hi –

I am having trouble with fio intermittently crashing on Windows 7.

Version is fio 2.1.4 64 bit, downloaded from Windows build site.

Has anyone else seen this?  If I give it fewer files in the job description, it 
seems to be less prone to crashing.  Since it crashes in pthreads, it looks 
like this may be some kind of threading bug.

Call stack of fio dump file is as follows:
