I’ve a strange fatal error using the ACME.jl package.

When I use the package with the libjulia api (c-api), I get a fatal error / out of memory while the same usage in the julia console do not produce any error.

I don’t know if the console make some internal configuration of memory (cache or Something similar) in initialization because my memory is not full (even in x86 build mode).

Is the ` jl_init(NULL)` make sense while some blog talk about an init with a system image `jl_init_with_image(..., "sys.ji")` but no “sys.ji” in windows, juste sys.dll.

When I use :

```
jl_init_with_image("D:\\dev\\julia\\julia-0.5.0\\bin", "..\\lib\\julia\\sys.dll");

```

The project compile and launch but I get the same error.

What this hell?
