Does the problem happen when you single-step through this instruction,
or even if you let the program run freely?

Sorry, I don't understand: where is ``here''?  On what line(s) does
the crash happen?  Are there any places where the same command does
not crash?

Also, what version of GDB do you have installed?  What does
"gdb --version"  print?

Invoke GDB with its stderr redirected:

       redir -e crash.txt gdb prog.exe

where prog.exe is your program.  When it crashes, the file crash.txt
will hold the crash message; please post it here.

Download and unzip v2/djdev203.zip.  It comes with a new fsdb.exe,
among other things.
