Okay, so if you call this windows API function:

SetErrorMode( SEM_NOGPFAULTERRORBOX );

It will suppress that error message.  I don't know about calling it from Python.  You should read up on this before using it.  I wrote a quick test in C++ where I open a program with a pipe that does a divide by zero and it successfully suppressed the dialog box.

Sorry for the yahoo formatting in advance.

Subject: [Boost-cmake] popups on windows

I've made some progress here, have managed to get vista and XP posting
build results to http://boost.resophonic.com/trac/traash.  It isn't
stable yet but should be soon.

One problem I'm having are these nasty popups on e.g. run-fail tests,
where the test program is supposed to dump core or whatever.  Does
anybody know offhand how to suppress them?
