Then you were unbelievable lucky.

list := TStringList.Create is missing.

If it used to work, then you the uninitialized variable list was pointing to a 
memory location in the heap, contained valid (or at least non-crash causing) 
information and updating that upformation, e.g. the count value of the list didn't 
cause a crash. Extremely lucky.

Next time, try adding the -gt option, to decrease your chances on such luck and get 
a crash sooner rather than later.
