vls win-32 bug

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

I realize this is a problem in my config, but it's also shows a bug in
the program:

in my vls.cfg file, I create a user, "Administrator" of group "master"
with a line:
~  administrator = ":master"
~ (I was originally trying to create a user with a blank password.)
Detailed information about my system configuration is at the bottom of
this message.

When I run vls.exe, the program crashes almost immediately. The terminal
window shows:
