It seems to have been a problem with the Windows runtime libraries.
I'm used to link to the release versions of the image libraries and
that might have screwed things up. After compiling all those image
libs into debug versions I can now run the debug version of my test
suite. Cool.

Too bad that all of this took too much time to figure out. I apologize
if I have wasted someone's time. :-(

Regards,
Christian
