If you can give a working program or set of programs that demonstrate the problem, I run it here and see if I can tell where to go next. Without a way to reproduce the problem, I can't help much. I don't think even Rick can help much without that. But of course Rick always surprises me, so maybe

It seems like we are getting few people putting a little bit of work into testing. At least they are opening bugs. I think we should refresh the beta on SourceForge at some point we agree on. I have the time this week, and it is not a whole lot of work for me to build the packages, I just run th
