Might be simplest to create a Linux VM on the Windows box and use that for very 
big projects.  My guess is that there's a memory allocation problem that only 
shows up on large projects on Windows.

  Thanks everyone. Yeah I forgot to mention: I'm on a Windows 10 Thinkpad 
machine with i7 and 16GB RAM. So looks like the errors are coming through on 
the same systems.


  Sigh. What to do? I have an old laptop with a rocket-engine fan that I could 
try....

    Hard to decide what to do with our Windows compilations here.  We don't
    want to release when stuff keeps crashing for Windows users.
