Preface: IANAP(rogrammer)

Just a curiousity question - I put together a build of xmame 0.78u2
and was able to build it fine.  Later I found that -listinfo was
causing a segfault, and I traced it back to info.c in src/.  It just
needed a couple cpuintrf_init() calls in the right places and that
made it happy again.  I'm told that this doesn't occur in the regular
windows mame 0,78u2 build.  My question is - why?  I realize that
they're on two different operating systems, but shouldn't they be
performing the same basic functions for (what appears to be) a
relatively painless procedure?  Like I said, I'm not a programmer so
there could be a fundamental explanation for this that I just don't
know (and this may fall way outside the scope of this list - sorry
about that).  I was just wondering.  Any information appreciated.
