Hi Martin,

  Thanks for the test case.

  I can now reproduce the problem and I am uploading a patch which will prevent
the seg fault.  As it stands however the patch will still prevent the linker
from completing successfully.  I think that this is the right thing to do, since
the DataDictionary has not been fully constructed.  Please could you try out the
patch and let me know if you have any problems with it.

  The problem is the missing .idata$4 section.  It is needed (and the unpatched
linker was assuming that it was always there).  I am not sure why it is missing
though, and it may not be important.  If you want to, try changing the "result =
FALSE" statements in the patch to "result = TRUE" and see if the resulting
linked executable actually works.

Cheers
  Nick
