cvs emacs 2005.02.18 issue

[Kyle Lee]

    hi all,
    i am a newbie.
    i compiled the recent cvs emacs with M$ VS6 and M$ VS2003.
With GnuWin32 image libs support. The compilations are correct. 
But sth strange. When i opened a PNG/GIF image, emacs crashed 
with a message dialog "... fatel error ... ". Both of them.(VS6 or VS2003)
    But the 2005.01.05 cvs emacs compiled with M$ VS2003 works fine.
    How can i resolve this problem ?
    thx in advance.
    
    Sorry for my poor English.

Problems with the CVS version of Emacs should be posted to the
emacs-devel@gnu.org mailing list, not here.

First, it would be useful to debug the problem and see what causes the
crash.  The CVS code is not of release quality, so it could include
bugs.  The Emacs developers need your help to debug them.

If you cannot afford debugging the problem, try compiling without
optimizations, it might make the problem go away.
