Rails server running in command prompt causing conhost.exe to crash

I have a Rails application that requires a bunch of environment stuff to get set up, and right now the easiest way for me to do it is to run a batch file to configure the environment and then launch the server from the command prompt. (Perhaps one day I will bite the bullet and transcribe all of the various environment variables into the project config, but I'd rather not...)

But when I do this, I occasionally manage to crash conhost.exe! It does not seem like I should be able to do this. Stranger still, it seems to happen most often if I access certain records in the application. I can't imagine it could crash if there were too much console output???

I am also having mscvrt-ruby.dll crashes, although I may have resolved those by doing some gem finagling. The conhost issue may or may not be related, I'm not sure. But if I launch the server from within RadRails, I don't seem to get these issues (the app doesn't completely work because of the missing environment stuff, but it seems much more stable).

Technicals: Windows 7, Rails 2.3.5, Ruby 1.93, Mongrel 1.2.0pre, uh, not sure what else...

Thoughts?
