No, I don't think so. The fix for the assembler window wwas only in 
code, that was triggered when the debugger object got destroyed.
Does the problem occur on the *first* attempt to run the app? Or only 
after you have "reset" the debugger (via "run" menu)?

The only change, I can think off that an affect startup is rev 32200.
That is, this affects code that is executed during startup => but it 
actually fixes an issue where hte debugger became none responsive 
(though the issue would usually occur later during debugging)

What is in the Menu: "View" >"debug windows" > "debug output" ?

Ideally compile the IDE with the following defines (will cause a lot of 
console/log output):  DBG_VERBOSE  DBGMI_QUEUE_DEBUG
