À, do you also compile Emacs 24.3 as a 64-bit executable?  Or do
you build it as a 32-bit executable?

I compiled Emacs as a 32-bit executable. 

If I run only temacs.exe without any arguments, I get a very quick backtrace:

I also traced the execution of `temacs -batch -l loadup dump' with windbg, and got a similar stack trace as Fabrice (I breakpointed Fgarbage_collect):

When I stepped out Fgarbage_collect, the error occurred just after this gc at here in eval_sub:

if (!CONSP (fun))
xsignal1 (Qinvalid_function, original_fun);

I also tried removing most of loadup.el, and temacs can execute only the first few lines, and even an additional `(+ 1 1)' caused temacs to exit with the "DEAD" message. As I previously reported, I guess that the first garbage collection cycle does not mark any read-in form, thus all of them are collected (and their car set to Vdead).

Thanks.
