Thanks!

Running the binary with a debug version of the Win32 kernel dll showed that Win32 function GetModuleHandle() failed. The function is fed with the full path of a binary. The call failed and the calling code apparently doesn't expect this function to fail.

A small fix in DPMILD32.EXE will be necessary.
