Ah, so let me make sure I understand: d18 didn't work on Unix, and we 
needed to put out something that *would* work on Unix, but the source 
had changed at that point, so we called it d19.  But we never posted 
Mac/Windows versions of d19, as d18 was working for them.  Is that 
about right?

That's not a bad idea.  By the open-source mantra of "release early, 
release often," this might be good all around -- it would also give 
us a nice recent reference version, for comparing against the new C++ 
version.

I'm willing to put some effort into making a Mac build good enough to 
call official 1.6d20 -- is anyone willing to do the same for Windows 
and Unix?

Best,
