Windows 7

I tired to start a game of defense (under the special tab on the title screen) and when it tried to generate the world, Windows popped up with a message that cataclysm.exe had stopped working, and i have to close the window. The character creation works fine though

Traced it, mapgen breakage looks like. Question: you folks using prebuilt or compiling your own?

I would assume prebuilt, considering i got it straight from [Here](http://dev.narc.ro/cataclysm/jenkins-latest/Windows/Curses/)

Yep, that’s prebuilt. Good to know: thought it might be a compiler issue. Thanks for reporting, and we’re looking at a fix now.
