Hi there!

the uisimulator doesn`t seem to work on winnt4.0!

regardless, on which win32 platform I compile it (with
cygwin/mingw environment), it simply doesn`t run on
NT4.0, but segfaults at an very early stage.
it runs fine on win98/2000/XP (even the .exe I compiled
on NT4.0!)

Had somebody success compiling the simulator on linux
with win32 as target platform? If so, does THAT
uisw32.exe probably run on NT4.0 ? If you don`t have
NT available for testing, send the uisw32.exe to
for_spam@gmx.de - I can test that. (and possibly can
compare the differences)

here is some further info I already sent to the list - but
nobody had a solution so far - so I post this as a bug
report.

it bangs before main!

this is what I get:
