Hm I don't have  a XP machine to test on. But as Symbol 04 is resolved, 
it seems to work. It just can not resolve symbols inside your 
application. There is no upper limit to dbghelp.dll. I'm on Windows 7 
with dbghelp version 6.1.7600.16385. Most likely the probelm are the CV 
debugging symbols, as it was kind of hacky to get it to read those. Try 
converting your application with cv2pdb to pdb debugging symbols and see 
if this fixes the problem.
