How amazing is that? I call it a night and come back to find that a bug has been identified and patched while I sleep.
When will it appear in the binaries (I see that the release version is still 8.1.3)? I thought about trying to compile
fromsource, but after looking at the mingw page was too intimidated by figuring out what to download to try compiling
source.
Best Regards,
