[DUG] app terminating abruptly

[Kyley Harris]

I tried one project with kylix. The Kylix Q library dll that borland wrote  
for the windows app was sooooo bad
that I simply gave up on it completely. Yes. Errors everywhere, left right  
and centre, I didn't even need to
run memcheck, which may not identify dll issues. The fact that I was  
getting abnormal corruption and my gui
controls never rendered properly told me everything I needed to know about  
that pile of excrement.

Kylix under linux was ok, but the cross platform thing was a big pile..
