You mean really nothing, even not a command prompt?
That would be strange, but otherwise perhaps DOSes
above 6.22 got that bug fixed. As for Windows - it definitely
wouldn't have an empty env, so on windows I don't suppose
this problem can be reproduced. Its only about plain DOSes
(but in your case plain 7.10 doesn't show any problem too).

The SIGSEGV is a problem of a test version - I
built it specially for various env testings and the
env overrun check is omitted. But I think you
can work around that problem if you run it with
/E:2048
to give more environment space. Then I hope
it will work. But as you said, its not related to
the problem, so maybe you don't want to do that. :)
