That's the most recent version.
Test 32 checks "pp --gui", right?

Yeah, I see that sometimes, too. And always with "pp --info ...".
Somehow Win32::Exe seems to corrupt the executable - it's workings
are black magic to me.
There doesn't seem to exist a standard command
on Windows to change icon or properties of an executable,
the only MS sanctioned way seems to set them from a resource file
when linking the executable.
