Thanks for reporting this issue.

Does the crash also occur if you don't use -resize?

If you've installed my snapshot as XWin.exe, the easiest way to get the 
1.8.2-1 version back is to reinstall it using setup.

Unfortunately, I can't reproduce this on my Win7 system, although it is quite 
possible that this is specific to the display driver or hardware.

If you can use gdb to generate a backtrace for this segfault, that would be 
most helpful.
