Ah, thanks. I'll have to see if I can work out how to build from source then.

(Later). Looks like it needs a whole load of tools setting up that I
don't currently have. Never mind (I don't relish setting up a *third*
compilation environment including boost alongside MSVC and mingw which
I already have). I wish every project didn't require its own
specialised build environment on Windows :-( (And I'd like a pony
too...)
