Ah, thanks. I didn't even know about that ;-) And after turning it on, I 
can see it, too - and I'm not sure what I saw before because what 
happened reminded me of the handle leak that used to be in sockets and 
sure enough, the lookup code has the same problem (a missing 
CloseHandle() call for the thread created).

Well, the good news is that I understand the problem and know how to fix 
it. The bad news is that I currently have no definitive VMMaker version 
against which to compile - I might do a cheap respin of 3.7 (e.g., a 
3.7.2) with *just* that fix included.  Would this helpful for you?
