Thanks to you and to Darcy as well,


I have compiled the source (it was necessary to change a setting that 
made the compiler to stop after warnings, but an Internet search told me 
how to do it). Now I have to "convince" the compilation system to look 
into the right place, if I can't overcome this I will ask again.
