Thanks, but the reason for the problem is pretty much clear at the moment, no
new information required.

kernelbase.dll has grown in size and in some builds (bit more likely on Staging
but mainstream also) does not fit between its supposed base address and
kernel32.dll. When that happens, kernelbase gets relocated to the lower address
space and takes the place of .exe image which is built relocations.

I think the fix will follow but for the moment stripping kernelbase.dll is a
temporary workaround.
