I have also done some tests with a normal x64 build witout symbols enabled
Testing shanhigw I got the crash after pressing OK if I launch the game with normal syntax
mame shanhigw
instead I run into the game using
mame stvbios -cart1 shanhigw

According to your output above, you can't run the XML softlist for stv...
"XML support was disabled at compile time".
How is that even possible?

If you aren't building your binaries correctly - it's hard to confirm things that do not seem to be happening for other people. There was a toolchain change as well, are you using the old tools or the new tools?

That said, all the sets you mentioned in this driver are identified and boot to title on my 32-bit, 0.142u4 build using default settings. Try to find a binary for U4 build by someone else - for instance:

Every time you ask me the same question and every I say is a normal x64 build compiled with normal latest tool
make all TARGETOS=win32 PTR64=1

I can't download the binaries cos I was banned from mameworld years ago and I have never registered another account.
I have tested a self build mameui64 anf the one from the official site and trying to start shienryu I got the same crash after pressing OK.
I have deleted the cfg and nvram files too but the result is the same.

I'm sorry to keep mentioning it. I can't duplicate a lot of what you report.
I can't explain why you get more oddness and unconfirmed behavior from your binaries than anyone else.

I'm hoping some people with 64-bit, command-line builds can duplicate these crashes. Is it possible that you are running other options such as that new HLSL?

No I'am not running any HLSL options.
And about my strange bug report I remenber a Nibbler bug that nobody was able to duplicate till a dev said "it's a race condition between threads" :-)

I have tried another test compiling a mame x64 command line using latest MESS SVN source (Rev. 11803).
Now the games work fine but I notice that playing shanhigw reappears the old problem the game starts with 2 credits inserted.
