status access violation

[Enrico Bernardini]

Hi,
my program hav a strange beaviour:
It is like this example:
main
{
...
setuid(client_uid);
...

switch(fork())
case default:
...
break;

case 0: /* child */
...
execle(...);
break;
}

well, it works but when I remove a stupid unrelated piece of code
(setuid(client_uid);) 
in the main, the process crashes with:

Exception: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION at eip=61008D0E

The process forks but it crashes during the execle call.

Can anybody please help me?

Thanks a lot
Enrico
