I get the identical stacktrace with 1.3.0-rc3.0:

This is what's happening in the build, as well: https://travis-ci.org/JuliaInterop/Cxx.jl/jobs/576824441

__precompile__(false) might reveal #444

Cxx still fails to precompile on julia 1.3:

I haven't updated Cxx binaries for Julia 1.3, so this failure is expected, please manually apply those patches I mentioned in #444 and do a source build if you wanna use Cxx with Julia 1.3.

I lost the build environment of CxxBuilder and currently it's very hard to re-download those BB2 shards from scratch in mainland China, so this won't be fixed anytime soon. For now, I'm looking for a way to make Cxx source build for Julia 1.3 easier.
