I believe I found the problem and it only affects Win32 builds. If the
filename parameter in the "load commands" command doesn't use quotes,
there is a potential crash after the commands are executed. I have
committed a fix for this issue into CVS.

Can you verify that if you put quotes around the filename that the issue
disappears? If that works it could be a temporary work around until the
next Windows release.
