Saptarshi,

if you look at the sheer number of shared libraries involved, heap 
corruption may have happened due to errors in any of these. 
Finding the reason for such problems is usually difficult, but almost 
impossible without a reproducible example. If you could boil it down 
to a minimal example still triggering the access violation, one could 
try to run it under control of a memory guard like valgrind. 

Best

Hugo
