What platform? Are you using the CVS version or something else? If
you're using CVS then there is something wrong, if you're using
something older then I think that it's been fixed (see above).

There won't be any binaries for Linux, probably, since there's too many flavors.

often for events.

Good, I thought it might be useful to somebody and certainly is for me
to make sure that the bindings are working properly.
