Yupp. But please, _PLEASE_ stop bothering us.

If you would take the information given for free, e.g.
reading ChangeLogs you should have noticed that my name
does not only occur in Dia and Gimp ones but also in
glib, gtk, pango, libart, pygtk, ...

Do you think DLLs are falling from heaven straight 
to DLL hell?

As stated on my website and in some mails on the list
I'm using the Microsoft toolchain. No autobreak, no pain.

Compiling is simple
        nmake -f makefile.msc
as described in glib/README.win32

And again: There is no special modified version of sources
for win32. All the required changes are avaiabe in gnome 
cvs ...

This is the last time I repeat it for you and I hope I
can resist to even read any of your further mails.
