I can't reproduce this here either. I need the patch at [1] to make
the GUI pop up, but even after applying that I get no crash.

(magit provides a Makefile such that "C-x g" is bound to magit-status
if you do 'make emacs-Q', although I don't normally use this on
Windows since I don't have 'make' on PATH)
