Let's take a look at the following program:
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
char buffer[20];
gets(buffer);
printf("%s",buffer);
return 0;
}
If you feed it a line that's too long, the access violation will
happen deep within the C library. Without debugging symbols, it's
hard to know wether this is a bug in the C library (and there
could be quite a few :-) or your program.
