CreateMinidumpOnCrash

[Tom Rodriguez]

I just tried to use CreateMinidumpOnCrash on Windows x64 and got an empty dump file and an empty failure message.

-rwxr-xr-x  1 root None     7421 Mar 31 14:00 hs_err_pid4524.log
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root None        0 Mar 31 14:00 hs_err_pid4524.mdmp

As far as I can tell it should be impossible to get an empty error message for this.  Is this a known issue?
