Hi Arjen: It sounds like you are making good progress on this platform as well. For all three Windows platforms I look forward to your commits solving the straightforward issues that you find and I assume the problem above is of that type. However, if this or some other issue is tricky for you to solve, feel free to consult in detail with me using the normal report tarball method (which typically is required to give me all the details that I need to help you).
