FWIW,
http://help.netop.com/support/errorcodes/win32_error_codes.htm

says
487     Attempt to access invalid address.     ERROR_INVALID_ADDRESS

This problem has been reported before, for example in

http://bbs.chinaunix.net/thread-973003-1-1.html
(not that I can read it very well)

and

http://lists.pgfoundry.org/pipermail/brasil-usuarios/20061127/003150.html

No resolution seems to have been found.
