No

Well the postgis-gui plugin is compiled with mingw64 and is the one distributed with PostGIS 2.2 one (not that it matters since that code has not changed in a while).
I have to test this myself. My friend was using a Windows 7 32-bit and the screen she showed me, it gave some sort of VC++ debug error before it crashed (so doesn't seem like it is crashing in the plugin though the error does suggest that)
As I recall, I think she got as far as the PostGIS-GUI (shp2pgsql-gui) showing her the list of tables and it was when she proceeded to export was when it crashed.
Again I'll have to check this for myself, since she only sent me a screen shot. Attached is the screen shot she sent me. She said when she uninstalled 1.22 and reinstalled 1.20 things were okay.
I usually just use the shp2pgsql command line since it's more efficient for larger tables and I can script it.

Thanks,
