Thanks for the report!  Shelarcy, did you use Vista to build this?

Does this mean we need a separate package for XP?  I could conceivably
do this, but it would be a bit of a pain, as I haven't really set up
my Windows virtual machine. So if you have an XP box that you're
willing to build on, I'd be interested!

[of course, if it turns out that other people with XP can run
Helloworld, that's a different story]

Miguel, would you be willing to try building from source?
