SIGSEGV in IDirectDrawImpl_EnumDisplayModes

[Matthew Bloch]

Apologies for needing some more hand-holding: from Alexander's advice I now 
have the game linking and beginning to execute.  It now gets stuck while 
executing this piece of C++:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
void tDirectDrawScreen::destroy()
{
  DDSURFACEDESC ddsd;
  memset(&ddsd,0,sizeof(DDSURFACEDESC));

  ddsd.dwSize         = sizeof(DDSURFACEDESC);
  ddsd.dwFlags        = DDSD_CAPS;
  ddsd.ddsCaps.dwCaps = DDSCAPS_PRIMARYSURFACE;

  HRESULT hr = mp_directDraw->CreateSurface(&ddsd, &mp_primarySurface, NULL);
  // crashes here
  ...
}
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

This being the segfault that occurs:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Any ideas why this might be happening?
