New builds have been posted for x86-darwin, x86-linux and x86_64-linux. A
build without the new fix has been posted for x86-freebsd by housel.

If anyone wants to try these out and make sure they work, that'd be great.
Housel is going to do updated FreeBSD and Windows builds tomorrow and then
I'll update the website and send a release email.

In 24 hours, I'll be going away for 2.5 days ... so hopefully no (further)
major issues are uncovered. :)
