Hi NightStrike! Thanks for the follow-up.
But, please, let me emphasize that I don't need anything here -- no urgent problems. Right now I am using one of Ruben's early std::thread-enabled builds, and I compile with -static, and everything is fine. Opportunistically, I like to upgrade from time to time, just to stay up to date. For me it's about keeping abreast of what's available. When I have a quiet moment when I could upgrade without too much disruption, I look around to see what's available, and decide whether the various improvements are enough to make the upgrade worth the bother. So please understand my question (quoted below) as a request for information about what is available, rather than a request to make some particular version or feature available. Thanks again for everyone's help. K. Frank On Mon, Jun 18, 2012 at 8:56 PM, NightStrike <nightstr...@gmail.com> wrote: > Ping, Ruben > > On Mon, May 14, 2012 at 4:14 PM, K.
