I am (still) looking at runtime problems in between revision 19398 and
19412 as every binary you start fails to run with a application error
pop-up with the following text:
The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000142). Clock on OK
to terminate the application.

I also think we need to start reporting things in trac so we know what
we do and what we fix and how we fix it. I have taken a start already
with all fixed I needed to compile up to revision 19247, which all work
until 19398 if I remember correctly.
Kind regards,
Jonathan
