Umm, Dave, I think you may be confused.  Reini's issue was that "cat
/proc/registry/HKEY_PERFOMANCE_DATA" (yes, I didn't notice the typo
before, interesting) didn't terminate, which I, after reading MSDN,
believe to be perfectly valid behavior.  He wasn't getting any segfaults.
FWIW, I can't reproduce your segfaults either, on Win2k SP3, but I can
reproduce the behavior Reini reported.
