I compiled using "g++ -g test.cc", and I'm seeing the behavior that Joost
mentioned.  gdb caught the exception and is currently pointing at an
assembly instruction between the last brace of the for loop and the last
brace of the try block: "mov (%edx),%ecx".

I did have to tweak the source a bit to get it to run.  On my machine, I got
the message "couldn't dynamically determine load address for
'CharToOemBuffA' (handle 0x0), Win32 error 127".  Putting a Sleep between
the two calls to CreateThread allows the program to run.  Looks like the
assembly in autoload.cc needs to be thread-safe (just like the FIXME above
it says).
