VBP generates an EXE of different size and crashes than VS2005

[jlk4sv]

So I have this horrible conundrum that has only occurred recently among many VBP projects we do at my company.

When I build my C++ app in VS2005 (+SP1) I get an app that is 3,844K and works fine, but when I build it using VBP (via MSBUILD/VCBUILD, I guess), I get an EXE that is 3,848K and crashes consistently in a specific spot when running the app.

This only appears to happen with the Release build. From looking at the solution settings in VS2005, most of them are default, and I've tried various switches that seem unique to the solution, but they either prevent building or don't make any apparent difference.

I'm running under Windows 2003 Server.

Is this familiar to anyone or any ideas what the problem might be.
