        Great :-) so - I got tired of seeing such a big patch, and pushed most
of it to master - I hope that's allright. I removed the unit test
disabling stuff.

        Fair enough. I suspect that for the native-dialog implementation in
headlessinst.cxx we want to go for an fprintf with some parse-able
syntax to the console, and then return.

        Ah yes - quite right; it'd be nice if you can revert them in your next
patch.

        I got annoyed by that and fixed it myself on master ;-) it seems to
work, though ideally we'd share more from Library_vcl.mk with the other
backends eg. the gtk3 one.

        Um; cli_ure shouldn't fail - it is some random mono / .net stuff that
shouldn't be on the startup path.

        Nice - IMHO this is all a bit silly - the 'main' has no wrapper 'catch'
around it, so if we get an un-caught exception we bomb out in a very
unpleasant way for no particularly good reason.

        If you poke at desktop/source/app/sofficemain.cxx you'll see some
#ifdef ANDROID-ness that adds a try / catch around 'main'. In theory
there is an unoexceptionwrapper that can be put around this stuff with
some magic, but ...

        Stephan - is there a reason why we would not catch and print something
helpful (a native dialog?) on unhandled exceptions around master ? 

        Hopefully that'll show you which shared library or random other
component registration that you're missing [ though you really don't
want the setIniFilename piece there ].

        Does that help ?

        Thanks !

                Michael.
