Okay, there is some issue regarding 0.13 and the way it does same 
date/time conversions. Specially it seems to affect systems running 
non-English versions of Windows.

Problem disappears in post-0.13 versions from CVS, where date/time 
handling has been rewritten.

After obtaining newest CVS-compilation it worked like a charm...

Few concerns about build process... New translations, current build 
can't handle them... Right? Since I'm considering to do Finnish 
translation...

Building installation tree. There should be "make -f Makefile.win32 
install" (or similiar) that makes runtime tree, it's a helluva job to 
make tree from scratch. Specially for developers.

For bugzilla there might be need to start having different platforms, 
since there will be issues regarding different platforms (like runtime 
location depedency in win32 platform)

There is a thing regarding SF.NET page:

All GPL/LGPL sources should be local (it is generally considered 
inadequate just to link them since you have _no_ control for location of 
files in linkged pages) if you redistribute binaries.
