I see the same symptoms, with the segfault. This host is a clean install, an AWS instance created for the purpose. It looks like woodlouse probably runs an older VS2013 and uses the native x64 toolchain; its env includes: C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\\VC\\BIN\\amd64 and does not have x86_amd64 in it. BTW, I suggested to Haroon that he clone beta2 from git, then do a git-bisect between beta1 (works) and beta2 (fails) to see if he can identify the commit that causes things to start failing. I don't know how far he got with that yesterday. By comparison, I had no problems on the same host with VS Community 2015, cl 19.00.23918, env "VS2015 x64 Native Tools Command Prompt": %comspec% /k ""C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat"" amd64 On a side note I'm unable to build with vs2013 community u5 native tools ( for some reason.
