Search archives of this group for GimpVS - its another build using
different tools than the "standard" gimpwin.
At least a couple of crashes for which bug reports were filed that I was
able to replicate on my system (WinXP Sp2 - Gimp 2.4.4) did NOT manifest
when I tried the same thing on the GimpVS 2008 install.
Of course there may be other problems with GimpVS that aren't manifest
with the standard. YMMV
