CE 5.0 crashes in editor during "intellisense"

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

This is a pretty specific problem. My WinCE 5.0 application has grown in
complexity enough that the "intellisesne" feature of the IDE text editor now
has a nervous breakdown when it tries to parse my source files...

Specifically, FEACP.DLL throws a "stack overflow" exception whenever I type
a left parenthesis in certain source files. The top-level error is an
attempted read of a null pointer as a result of the overflow. I just
installed all of the posted updates up to December 2007, and this problem is
obviously one that was never fixed. My FEACP.DLL is build 13.10.3077.0.

I have noticed that there are other 13.10 generation DLLs with higher build
numbers (3100 to 3200) that were used with some of the VS.NET products and
service packs. Can anyone from MS tell me if this bug was addressed in any
of the subsequent builds? (And where I can get them from, since our VS.NET
installations have V14 DLLs, that I suspect would be incompatible.)

For right now I have turned off the intellisense features of the editor, but
to be very honest I've grown fond of that little popup that lists the passed
parameters for the function call I'm typing...

If anyone has any hints about how to not have a stack overflow crash in the
Platform Builder IDE I'd love to hear about it. Thanks.
