But please wait for the next binary after today, since what is there
now has its sound support disabled due to the bug I mentioned in my
previous mail.

Btw, do you see crashes for _any_ non-existing file, or just for some
of them?  E.g., do you have non-ASCII characters in those file names?
How about the leading directories: if the file name includes leading
directories outside of the C:/Users tree, does the problem still
happen?
