I just tried it with a working directory of:

E:\brian\projects\cvsnt\merge\cvsnt\WinDebug\asdfasdfasdfasjdhasjkdfhaskjdfhasdf
jasdhjfsdjhf>

And it seems like it is working fine. I am using Windows 2000 SP2 and
the 1.11.1.4 beta. Looking up "WahReferenceContextByHandle" and
WS2HELP.DLL on Usenet indicates that this is a problem with Windows NT
4.0 prior to service pack 6 and occurs with many network-enabled
applications. What version of Windows are you using?

Thanks,
Brian
