<DIV>Hi Jay:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Can you be more specific about the nature of the "windows C runtime version issue" you report below ?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Regards,</DIV>

That is probably the easiest solution.<BR>(I already suggested this and it is partly/fully in place?)<BR>I can try to look into it more, but building 2005 and 2008 should be easy enough.<BR>I can actually easily enough build a "release" for<BR>2.0, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 7.1 (2003), 8.0 (2005), 9.0 (2008)<BR>10.0 is coming soon as well.<BR>But I think 2005 and 2008 will suit most people.<BR>We can also put up "boot" releases.<BR><BR>I'd like to cut the C runtime dependency, it is already pretty light,<BR>but it hard to cut entirely, and that has issues for linking Modula-3 to C/C++.<BR>Maybe linking statically will be ok and work?<BR><BR>https://projects.elego.de/cm3/ticket/1076<BR><BR>"cm3 ?" crashes (array access out of bounds)<BR><BR>This is probably fixed.<BR>Certainly the command line parsing had been recently<BR>made crash prone and then improved.<BR><BR><BR>https://projects.elego.de/cm3/ticket/1068<BR><BR>32/64bit pickle issue.<BR>I've never used pickles at all.<BR>Needs investigation.<BR><BR><BR>https://projects.elego.de/cm3/ticket/1068<BR><BR>many GUI apps fail on AMD64_DARWIN.<BR>Somewhat old report, by me.<BR>We can cut this platform for this release if the bug persists.<BR> Lame.<BR>Needs investigation/confirmation.<BR><BR><BR>https://projects.elego.de/cm3/ticket/1048<BR><BR>libz problem on Solaris.<BR>fixed?<BR><BR><BR>https://projects.elego.de/cm3/ticket/1056<BR><BR>make-dist is confused on AMD64_DARWIN between<BR>AMD64 and I386. Not a big deal either way.<BR>Maybe fixed, or easy to fix, or cut the platform.<BR>(I don't think we have AMD64_DARWIN in Hudson/Tinderbox.<BR>My I386_DARWIN system can be it (on an alternate network at the moment).)<BR><BR><BR> - Jay<BR></DIV></BODY></HTML>
