Ad, my bad. It is Visual Studio 9 which includes Visual C++ 2008. I agree it is difficult to isolate these issues. I have another computer running XP that has no problems with hugin or gimp (and, I do not intend to jostle anything less bad luck descend on that computer :) It is DEP that is detecting a buffer overflow and is closing Hugin. I am not sure if my XP machine has DEP installed.
At Yuval's suggestion, I have agreed to test build earlier versions to try to isolate the problem area. The Toshiba notebook I use was purchased in 2008 so it came with Windows Vista and update has been activated. DEP is a anti-malware defense that comes with Vista. Apparently it has been available for some time on MS servers.
