Sorry, I have no idea what is going on. From looking at the Perl
sources, I get a bad vibe from the call_sv() inside Perl_init_os_extras()
in win32/win32.c. The Perl interpreter isn't fully initialized when
this function is called, so it is not clear to me that it is really
safe to use the Perl calling mechanism yet.
Just as an experiment, you could replace the whole block
/* load Win32 CORE stubs, assuming Win32CORE was statically linked */
if ((cv = get_cv("Win32CORE::bootstrap", 0))) {
dSP;
PUSHMARK(SP);
(void)call_sv((SV *)cv, G_EVAL|G_DISCARD|G_VOID);
}
with just a call to boot_Win32CORE() (and add the appropriate EXTERN
definition too), just to see if this makes the error go away.
Cheers,
-Jan
