Follow-up Comment #1:


> This handler calls exit() in itself.

In the source code (gnulib/lib/closeout.c), you can see that it calls _exit(),
not exit().

> Indeed, in my environment (mingw-w64 on Windows), that causes stack overflow
and app crash.

Please be more precise. Which of the programs, part of gettext, crashes, and
under which conditions? I need a precise "how to reproduce" recipe.

Also, how did you build GNU gettext? As described in INSTALL.windows, or not?
