I would have no problems incorporating these into 0.30, but I would like
to hear from Tristan on the stack alignment issue; it WOULD be better to
get to the root cause and fix it!

I am not jumping right onto this because we are sorting out some issues
with the build process for Nixos, and I haven't heard anything back from
the Debian packager. 
Lluis has found some basic issues with my Make changes, we have
simplified them, but we're not done there yet.

So I would like to submit a second patch to clear up all of Lluis'
issues (it will replace my interim patch of last week) before we fix the
Windows build.

I also have patches for a couple of the Support and Bugtracker issues;
perhaps I could roll these into your Windows requests? Or would it be
better to issue a huge number of little patches, one for each issue, in
the style of the Linux kernel?
