xpidl.exe that I downloaded in the GeckoPluginSDK.zip file crashes with an error
in "ntdll.dll" when attempting to create the *.h file.  xpidl -m header -I
..\IDL nsISimplePlugin.idl.  xpidl work fine when compiling the .xpt files. 
xpidl -m typelib -I ..\IDL nsISimplePlugin.idl.

I am currently using Windows XP SP 2.  Version 5.1.2600

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.xpidl -m header -I ..\IDL nsISimplePlugin.idl.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Get windows bug report and error in system application log.  The *.h file gets
created but contains no data.  xpidl crashes.


Faulting application xpidl.exe, version 1.4.20030.50804, faulting module
ntdll.dll, version 5.1.2600.2180, fault address 0x00018fea.
you probably have the wrong version of libidl.dll, could you attach a zipped dwi
made by following the steps at
http://www.mozilla.org/quality/help/dependency-walker.html use the command from
your step 1.
Even zipped output was over 500 KB, too large to download to Moz. 
libIDL-0.6.dll is being used with xpidl.  This was the version that came in the
SDK zipped download.
