i often develop under gnu/linux and then i compile under windows (i  
prefer to compile under windows instead of cross compile...)

i still develop with 4.2.x because 5.x depends on gtk 3 and gtk 3  
under windows, that i know, isn't yet stable (i'll try asap new version)

so for me it is very import that you backport every possibile  
changes/fixes made on 5.x to 4.2.x (for example i reported some time  
ago some problem with oracle provider and with blob (in this case  
specifically under windows) that, i think, were not backported); but,  
at the same time, i understand that isn't easy


thanks
