This problem was solved as side effect of the changes to use mmap-like
memory management for buffer text and store the dumped data in a
static array instead of a special section.

Closing.

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the [email-masked] mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

  strip emacs.exe
  emacs -Q

results in the OS popping an error dialog saying:

  emacs.exe is not a valid Win32 application

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
d:/gnu/emacs/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
