RE: [Bug-gnubg] Windows build 030203 crashes

[Billie Patterson]

Albert,

The new build still crashes.  But here's another clue for
the programmers.

If I reboot my computer, open only gnubg, and play several
games with heavy use of the hint window, my GDI resources
go steadily down -- 1% for about every 3 or 4 openings of
the window.  If I turn tutor mode off so that the hint
window doesn't open, GDI stays steady.  So some reference
to a graphic object in the hint window is not being
properly killed when the window closes.

I'm running Win98SE, 360 MB ram, Athlon 1.1 chip.
