Ok, sorry I didn't understand this was made on purpose. When you report a bug,
it's a good idea to give the expected result with the testcase.

About the bug in itself I'm not familiar with Windows so do you know how to
generate such an exception? If yes I can guide you as to where modify tcc's
code and you could make your first commit to tcc :) How does that sound?

Best regards,
