Hi Arjen:
I just reviewed the situation for that showstopper bug
(http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug
I agree with Alan's caution over this, however if we _can_ manage a windows

The fact is that plplot is a complex beast to build given the dependencies and
Windows users tend to be far less used to this kind of thing th

files, generated by the build process, were unuseable because
of the file permissions they got, essentially: no access at all.
This was a showstopper and I figured it w
