I have to second, or third this.   I have not bothered to install the 
latest .debs because I know it will break Win4Lin.  Upgrading libc always 
brakes it, and this time I will have to wait too long for the patch to fix 
it. 
Unless the experimental version is moving to sid soon I think the best option 
is to recompile with the sid version, otherwise I will have to downgrade to 
3.1.4 also.
