No idea about the crash, but here is some additional information:
I have successfully built many vims through 7.3.618 on Windows 7 and have both
python 2.7.3 from python.org and self-built perls 5.14 and now 5.16. The same
:perl VIM::Msg("Hello") has always worked without crashing. Compiled with MS C
compiler from SDK 7.1. Same compiler used to builed the perls.
