Nice work! I'm going to build the 2.3.5 tarball probably today. I'll use
the old installer for the official one, but we can release 'testing'
installers built from this code, as well (including the 64 bit binary).
We can advertise those just on the lists, as we did the last time. That
should get us a fair amount of testing.
