A new Flyspray task has been opened.  Details are below. 

User who did this - Bryan W (zephirdx) 

Attached to Project - libGD
Summary - circletexttest.exe scans as virus on win32
Task Type - Bug Report
Category - Configure/Build
Status - Unconfirmed
Assigned To - 
Operating System - Windows
Severity - Very Low
Priority - Normal
Reported Version - 2.0.35
Due in Version - Undecided
Due Date - Undecided
Details - **This is officially a problem with v2.0.34, as no distributed binaries are available for .35 yet, but I have seen it in previous versions as well which leads me to guesstimate that it will show up again.

A few virus scanners mark the file bin/circletexttest.exe, a binary included with Win32 pre-built distros linked from libgd.org, as a virus/trojan.

From AVG:
  * Object: .\gd-2.0.34-win32.zip:\bin\circletexttest.exe
  * Detection Name: Trojan horse Downloader.Agent.AOVS
