[mythtv] Seg Fault on HEAD build under win32

[buzz]

Mark,
Yes, much work is being done.   Nigel and Arnonm have been doing a lot
of work mopping up errors/warnings in the win32 build scripts/code,
and I believe that the QT3 based code in 21-fixes is near-enough to
functional, and will be release ready soon.    the QT4 based code in
HEAD builds to completion, but it's currently suffering from a
critical failure that prevents any of the executables from running
except mtd.exe, and we are at a bit of a loss as to why.

FYI - this is the error that is reported IMMEDIATELY on startup, there
is no stacktrace or any information from GDB - if anyone can help with
this, it'd be appreciated!

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
Program exited with code 030000000005.

Buzz.
