Sorry for the delay in responding to this question but I was with a client.

profile_library_initializer() is being called both from krb5_32.dll's
DllMain as well as from xpprof32.dll's DllMain.  See src/lib/win_glue.c
control().  The error table is in fact being loaded from two different
places in memory.

Now the question is, why does krb5_32.dll have static copies of profile
functions and data instead of linking to xpprof32.dll to obtain them?
