In most cases, in triming down the extra code, someone finds the problem someplace else. If it's a 20 line program which shows the bad behavior, it's very simple and quick for me to diagnose what the problem is and potentially fix it. For example, the program may be using a null pointer, which will work under Windows but page fault under CWSDPMI (this is a program bug that CWSDPMI catches that you can't under Windows).
