The main problem is that if I provide an "inter-version" snapshot, i.e. a build that doesn't exactly correspond to the contents of an official (source) release, I will have to produce a corresponding source tarball (zipfile), too. (Otherwise somebody who reads the LGPL like the devil could accuse me of violating the LGPL.) Producing a source tarball is rather tiresome on Windows, and I had really really hoped I could avoid it from 2.2.1 on. I dunno, maybe just adding a couple of entries to the .def files could be considered such a minor change, that it would be OK to just distribute the diff for the .def file, and otherwise refer to the official source? --tml
