But, and now comes the point, one can hardly debug such situations under XP. Remote Debugger for vs2017 does not work, and analysis of dumps is cumbersome.
  So I'll give it a try but one outcome could be to drop LSE XP support in the most recent versions. The command line tools work... at least at a first glance
