Where do you see that, Terry? (Or was there an offlist email?)

That's possible -- and is essentially my main guess (faute de mieux). 
I've got the same results on 32 & 64-bit machines.

Hopefully the workaround I suggested -- doubling up the executable 
filepath -- will get round the user's particular issue. I'm not going to 
fight CRT changes, but if no-one else gets there, I will try to address 
issue8036
