Ah -- I think I added a 30-second sleep to ensure it didn't exit before it crashed.

I can reproduce it w/ every x86 program I launch. I've tried several.

Interestingly, I re-compiled the x86_64 version of the native lib using gcc, and then I use that instead of the stock one provided upstream (in the repo.). Mine was compiled w/ gcc 4.5.2. And it doesn't crash anymore.

Some other observations I've made...I removed the "throws LastErrorException" from CreateProcess() and it actually returns successful! However, the second I re-add the "throws LastErrorException" I get the same "resource not available in image" error. Presumably adding that statement induces an error somewhere b/t the actual native CreateProcess() call and whatever's used to detect and throw the exception. If I simply rely on the boolean returned by CreateProcess() to indicate success and then use Native.getLastError() (coupled w/ FormatMessage() to get the system error message), I can get things to behave as expected.

The code looks like:

final boolean success = CreateProcess(null, command_line, null, null, true, new DWORD(NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS | CREATE_SUSPENDED | CREATE_UNICODE_ENVIRONMENT), env_vars /* environment block */, null /* current dir */, startup_info, proc_info) != 0;
if (!success) {
  int error = Native.getLastError();
  throw new IllegalStateException("Unable to create process: [" + error + "] " + SystemMessageForErrorCode(error));
}

...

public static String SystemMessageForErrorCode(int error) {
  PointerByReference lpBuffer = new PointerByReference();

  int num_of_chars = FormatMessage(FORMAT_MESSAGE_ALLOCATE_BUFFER | FORMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_SYSTEM | FORMAT_MESSAGE_MAX_WIDTH_MASK, null, error, 0, lpBuffer, 80, null);
  if (num_of_chars <= 0)
    throw new IllegalStateException("Unable to determine the error message for error code [" + error + "]");

  Pointer ptr_buffer = lpBuffer.getValue();
  String message = new String(ptr_buffer.getCharArray(0, num_of_chars));

  LocalFree(ptr_buffer);

  return message;
}

(I'd actually appreciate any critique and suggestions for that SystemMessageForErrorCode() method).

Again all the above only works once I recompiled everything using my own environment/tools.
