[swfmill] Is there a limit on number of clips that can be imported into a single frame?

Thanks for trying it out Ralf. Oddly enough this problem does not
occur when I compiled the 0.2.12.2 from source both on linux and on
windows/cygwin with the latest versions of libxml, libxslt, freetype
and libpng. I suppose the problem might be with the versions of
libxslt/libxml or a combination of both that are linked statically in
the windows binary download. I can confirm the occurrence of this
crash on multiple machines with different mp3/jpeg files.

Also, it would be a great help if you can share the build instructions
on windows (using mingw, I assume) that does not require the
installation of the cygwin environment.
