Summary: tallow -s crashes

Initial Comment:
I am using tallow to dump the WIX code for an ActiveX 
control.  When I run tallow -s on the file I get the 
following:

The OCX in question resides in ClearCase, but other 
OCX files in the same directory work just fine.  If I 
copy the file to say D:\dwshk32.ocx and run tallow on 
it at that location, it too works just fine.  
Unfortunately I need it to work against the ClearCase 
location so I can script the install generation in as 
part of our build process.  I downloaded the tallow 
source and took a look.  It appears as if it is the 
call to LoadLibraryEx.  If I change the "flags" 
paramter from 8 to 2, that call works but then the 
call to DynamicPInvoke fails with the same "Access 
Denied" message.  Help!!
