The first parameter of stlport.init is called 'version', you
pass 5.2.1 for it, and this is fine. The second parameter is
called 'headers' and should be a single string. You pass 3
strings to it -- only one of which seems like a directory
with headers. Can you try:

         using stlport 
         : 5.2.1 
         : C:/STLport-5.2.1/stlport
         : C:/STLport-5.2.1/lib/evc8-arm C:/STLport-5.2.1/bin/evc8-arm 
         ;

I am not sure why you pass C:/STLport-5.2.1/bin/evc8-arm -- does this directory
exist and contain library files?
