6638,convert_aux fails while intializing global variable,john doe <johndoe>,Beman Dawes,"''path_traits.cpp''[[BR]]

'''convert_aux''' fails in global scope:[[BR]]

Trying to initialize global path variable by concatenating '/' a wide string path w/ narrow string path fails! [[BR]]

""Unhandled exception at 0x0f8bc688 (msvcp100d.dll) in paths.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x00000000.""
[[BR]]

If initializing inside main() scope everything works fine. I think this worked as expected in previous version(s) 1.48.. no luck with 1.49 though :( [[BR]]

Additional info: WIN 32 and 64 bit, MSVS2010[[BR]]
