Description

Code changes for windows port were added (MinGW and Visual Studio) to the proton codebase recently.

Using the new codebase and some additional changes, I ran the proton executable using the Visual Studio toolset as both a server and client. When the client exits, a Windows popup displays:

"Windows has triggered a breakpoint in proton.exe.
This may be due to a corruption of the heap, which indicates a bug in proton.exe or any of the DLLs it has loaded."

Still tracking this problem down.
