I'm not sure if I have the same version of that library, but it works on
my machine. Did you change the line

  sio_init(0x3f8,4);

to match your settings (e.g. sio_init(0x2f8,3); for COM2)?

The "stuff" is the traceback that tells you where the error occured. See
section 9.2 of the FAQ. 

You may also want to get Rhide, a nice IDE with a nice debugger. You can
find it on http://www.tu-chemnitz.de/~rho .

I'm using SVAsync (svas011b.zip). It's working good on plain DOS and
under Windows(95).
