  --------
  
+ This is the fourth alpha release of mingw-get; this is primarily a bug
+ fix release, with few user visible changes.  The installation procedure
+ remains the same as for previous releases; to upgrade from a previous
+ release, simply unpack the -bin package over the top of the existing
+ installation.  For further information, and usage advice, see:

+ 
+ User Visible Changes for mingw-get-0.1-mingw32-alpha-4
+ ------------------------------------------------------
+ 
+ - This release of mingw-get fixes a bug in the earlier self-upgrade
+   functionality, where any runtime error "deleted" mingw-get.  (mingw-get
+   and its support file(s) were actually only renamed, but recovery was
+   difficult).  Now, "ordinary" errors such as bad command line arguments,
+   failed downloads, missing manifests, etc, will not cause this behavior.
+   However, a catastrophic operating system error may prevent the new
+   auto-recovery code from executing, leaving mingw-get in its "deleted"
+   (e.g. renamed) state.  If this occurs, simply do the following:
+ 
+      cd /mingw
+      mv bin/mingw-get.exe~ bin/mingw-get.exe
+      mv libexec/mingw-get/mingw-get-0.dll~ libexec/mingw-get/mingw-get-0.dll
