Checkin [ca728447a6] breaks fossil on WinXP SP3 32 bit compiled under
MINGW32. Lots of compilation warnings but compile creates fossil.exe.
Checkin [3527aa4474] still compiles and runs fine.

Here are some attempts at running the compiled checkin [ca728447a6]
(fo is an alias for fossil).

11:26:07 $ fo
Usage: ????`A?A COMMAND ...
   or: ????`A?A help           -- for a list of common commands
   or: ????`A?A help COMMMAND  -- for help with the named command

11:27:21 $ fossil
Usage: ????`??A COMMAND ...
   or: ????`??A help           -- for a list of common commands
   or: ????`??A help COMMMAND  -- for help with the named command

11:27:29 $ fossil help
??????: ??????: unknown command: ??
??????: use "help" for more information
