I just tried this package on a "pristine" Vista box and learned a
couple of things.

1) this package is missing zlib1.dll, so before you uninstall your
existing THG, copy the zlib1.dll from that directory somewhere safe
and then after installing this new one copy that zlib1.dll into the
gtk directory with the rest of the GTK dlls.  I've made sure this will
be resolved in tomorrow's nightly build.
2) Issue #1 is fixed by the C++ extensions (no more blinking overlays
on Vista, yeah!)
3) after fixing the zlib1.dll problem, the package works great on Vista.

Now on to 64bits...
