What I generally prefer is to wait for a stable release. For my own
needs, I could well have done that this time too. But in this case, Alan
asked me if I would try building the current pre-release. Since some of
the things supposedly fixed were compile problems on systems similar to
mine, I went ahead and went through the extra effort. Hopefully the
feedback provided from that was useful.
