Since your original note says you are no longer interested in maintaining Dmake it would be good if you could either add this defect report or ask the reporter of the issue to add it. And you solved absolutely nothing by deprecating the Windows binary that is needed for building AOO 3.4.1, especially when you notice that it has been downloaded 1000 times.
