Yes. If you need a workaround to run you app you can comment FlsAlloc 
export. If this function is not available msvcrt will use TlsAlloc. I've 
also confirmed it by adding a hacky implementation of zeroing the memory 
on free.

There's no easy answer to this question. I've looked on the relay log 
and after figuring out it may be related to Fls* functions I have added 
some more traces to it. Afterwards it was quite obvious that application 
was using a value that was supposed to be no longer valid (FlsGetValue 
was returning old pointer instead of NULL).

I think it's ok if it's your code and compiler license is allowing to 
publish produced executable. I've already seen some executables attached 
to bugs.
